Health maintenance organizations (HMOs) were created to efficiently manage health care costs while
v v v v v v v v v v v v
providingqualitycare. An HMO is a type of managed careplan with the goal of providing wellness care
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
and not focusing on the illness during the provision of care. HMOs do not ensure payment is made to
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
Medicare for services rendered. HMOs also do not maximize the utilization of health care resources but
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
rather uses financial incentives to decrease care costs.

In the 1980s, the close and trusting relationship between an individual and the individual’s physician
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
waned and was replaced by acquaintances with specialists based upon particular healthcare problems.
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
These episodes of care cause fragmentation of care. The client who utilizes specialists is not at risk for
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
overpayment of services, the inability to sustain health, orfinding an appropriate general practitioner.
