Description

The University of Pennsylvania Health System in the early 1990s saw vertical "integration" as a way to have it all: the best medical school, the best hospitals, the largest primary care networks -- and even nursing homes, hospices, and home health care services, all linked in a continuum to produce leading-edge research, the best inpatient care, the finest doctors, the best nurses, and, of course, a larger market share, which, in turn, would generate the cash to invest in new research, new technologies, new faculty, and the new infrastructure needed to sustain growth in all these areas. With the passage of the Balanced Budget Act in 1997, which lowered federal Medicare payments, and simultaneous steps by third-party insurance providers to delay or deny their own reimbursements, the cash flow that they had come to expect, and upon which their operations were predicated, slowed dramatically. In assessing their options they considered two questions: First, why were they in the business of integrated academic medicine, and why on earth would we want to stay in it, given the--by then obvious--risks? Second, if they were going to stay in it, how would they make it work, both academically and financially. The answer to both questions was more and better integration, but applied very differently this time. Applied more horizontally, and less vertically.
