Some physicians, hospital executives, and health care policy analysts are pushing accountable care organizations (ACOs) to replace fee-for-service medicine. In an ACO, physicians and other health care professionals have financial incentives to contain costs and improve quality by coordinating care for a specific group of patients. Hospitals, physicians, and other health care professionals in the organization share the savings.
一些医生、医院管理人员和医疗保健政策分析师正在推动 accountable care organizations(ACO,可问责医疗组织)取代按服务收费的医疗模式。在一个可问责医疗组织中,医生和其他医疗保健专业人员有经济动机,通过为特定患者群体协调护理来控制成本并提高质量。该组织中的医院、医生和其他医疗保健专业人员分享节约下来的费用。
