Alignment

Clinical integration aligns patients, providers, and hospitals in a way that offers greater access to care, higher clinical quality, and long-term cost control.

Collaboration

Physicians and hospitals have the ability to thrive in a competitive health care market on the basis of quality care, not unit cost alone.

Leadership

Physicians developed and manage the program, to improve the quality and efficiency of patient care.

Negotiation

A physician-led network (independent and employed) can collectively negotiate with payers and health plans.

Quality Care

Physicians select specific quality measures to track and monitor physician performance and improvement.
