New Report: Including Safety-Net Providers in Integrated Delivery Systems: Issues and Options for Policymakers

"Health care reform has spurred efforts to develop integrated delivery systems that may be particularly beneficial to patients who face barriers to accessing care or have multiple health conditions. But it remains to be seen how safety net providers, including community health centers and public hospitals, will be included in integrated delivery systems. This report explores considerations for incorporating safety net providers into integrated delivery systems and discusses the roles of state and federal agencies in supporting and testing these models."  [Source: National Academy for State Health Policy (NASHP)]
