MCPR 2004 - Measuring the Quality of Pennsylvania's Commercial HMOs - About The Report


HMOs are often appealing to those who purchase health insurance because, in part, they offer a number of attractive features. However, there has been a growing concern about a perceived lack of continuity of care and access to necessary services and medications, which has driven a desire by Pennsylvania purchasers, consumers and policy makers for more objective information about the cost and quality of health care for those in HMOs and related Point-of-Service plans. Measuring the Quality of Pennsylvania's Commercial HMOs is a valuable resource that addresses this need for objective information about Pennsylvania's HMOs.
