When many physicians think of managed care, they think first of Kaiser Permanente, the nation's largest HMO. That perception is misguided, according to David M. Lawrence, MD, the chief executive officer and chairman of the boards of the Kaiser Foundation health plan and hospitals. During a phone interview recently, Lawrence described managed care from his perspective at Kaiser and discussed Kaiser's place in the coming changes in healthcare delivery.
当许多医生想到管理式医疗时,他们首先想到的是凯撒医疗集团(Kaiser Permanente),美国最大的健康维护组织(HMO)。然而,凯撒医疗集团健康计划与医院董事会主席兼首席执行官、医学博士大卫·M·劳伦斯认为这种看法是错误的。在最近一次电话采访中,劳伦斯从他在凯撒的视角描述了管理式医疗,并讨论了凯撒在即将到来的医疗服务变革中的地位。
