The preferred provider organization (PPO), an alternative delivery system currently embraced by the employer sector, has been growing at a phenomenal rate for the past few years. It is necessary to examine the issues an employer should consider when deciding whether to offer a PPO option, and to look at organizational issues such as PPO structure, quality, utilization review mechanisms, and benefits design.
首选供应商组织（PPO）是雇主部门目前采用的一种替代医疗服务提供系统，在过去几年中一直以惊人的速度增长。有必要审视雇主在决定是否提供PPO选项时应考虑的问题，并研究诸如PPO结构、质量、使用审查机制和福利设计等组织问题。
