Adventist Health Is Seeking Limited HMO License
Last month, Adventist Health's board approved a plan to obtain a limited health maintenance organization license so its hospitals and physicians can have more control over patient care under the Affordable Care Act, as well as to expand its market share. Consultants and lawyers are working with the system -- which includes a total of 19 hospitals in four states -- to design a strategy that could launch in three regional markets in 2014.
