A recent trend has independent medical practices throwing in the towel and selling to hospitals in hopes of eliminating the financial burdens of private practice. Incentive payments, tiered fee schedules, and patient collaboration place the primary care physician at the center of the ever-evolving healthcare payment system. Hospital services represent a high-cost, highly scrutinized line item with reform programs emphasizing a reduction in many of the services hospitals rely on today for their revenue. In an environment moving from volume to value, and featuring Accountable Care Organizations and Patient-Centered Medical Homes, hospitals may soon turn to these same medical practices as the source of their financial future.
最近出现了一种趋势，即独立医疗业务纷纷认输，将业务出售给医院，希望消除私人执业的财务负担。激励性支付、分级收费表和患者协作使初级保健医生处于不断演变的医疗支付系统的核心位置。医院服务是一项高成本、受到严格审查的项目，改革计划强调减少医院目前赖以获取收入的许多服务。在一个从量到值转变、以 accountable Care Organizations（ accountable Care Organizations可直译为“ accountable Care Organizations”，也可意译为“ accountable Care Organizations”，此处保留英文，因为在医疗领域可能是特定术语）和以患者为中心的医疗之家为特色的环境中，医院可能很快会将这些相同的医疗业务视为其财务未来的来源。
