METHODS: Using Care Plus claims data, prescription drug error rates were calculated at the enrollee level and then were agg…
Assessing the Culture of Medical Group Practices
This study was designed to identify the relevant components of the organizational culture of medical group practices and to develop an instrument to measure those cultures. Building on the work of industrial psychologists and organizational sociologists, a 35-item instrument was developed through an iterative process with more than 100 medical groups. The final instrument was tested using responses from physicians practicing in two very different…
A Descriptive Analysis of Health Insurance Coverage Among Farm Families in Minnesota
This paper reports the findings of a study of health insurance coverage and access to health services among farm families in Minnesota. The study included 1,482 families actively engaged in farming during 1989. While less than 10 percent of the population were uninsured during this period, the majority had limited coverage with high deductible and coinsurance provisions. Moreover, they were paying an estimated 15 to 20 percent more for their plan…

The measurement model, which characterized consortia structure in terms of degree of member commitment, degree of complexity, scale of operations…

This paper reports a pilot study which compares a sample of 32 nonprofit hospitals under management contracts with matched hospitals uneder trad…
