PHO: Unique Functionality for Managing Hospital-Based Organizations
The unique alignment between hospitals and physicians, commonly known as a PHO, creates a partnership to provide comprehensive, integrated, and coordinated healthcare at the optimal price point for both patients and providers.
Initiatives are normally enacted that span a range of settings and efforts, from multi-setting care coordination initiatives focused on a single condition to networks of caregivers accessing and exchanging a variety of clinical and financial information to deliver quality care.

Why QuickCap for PHOs?
Operationally, many PHOs are viewed as a contracting vehicle for providers desiring access to health plan contracts that offer capitation and fee-for-service reimbursement methods, along with incentive opportunities. More advanced strategies align a full
value-based health care approach while managing global risk arrangements with a myriad of payor partners.
Today’s QC7 solution provides a sound basis toward managing shared or full-risk arrangements within the given PHO business structures. From basic fee-for-service payment methods through more complex global risk and value-based capitation structures as a Direct Contracting Entity (DCE) with CMS, QC’s configurable design is staged to meet PHO requirements today and toward the future. Regardless of the lines of business (LOBs) managed, QC7 is easily adaptable and ready to initiate new or improve current operational needs.
