摘要

最近马萨诸塞州和合作伙伴医疗保健之间的和解，以及成功的反垄断行动，由联邦贸易委员会，可能标志着开始结束二十年的整合医疗保健提供者。这种整合与市场力量导致的价格上涨有关，这为反垄断行动提供了理由。然而，卫生部门的适当补救措施是一项独特的挑战。拟议的解决方案似乎锁定了以医院为基础的交付模式的遗产，而不是编排一条通往新的医疗交付模式的途径。显然，我们需要一个监管框架，将创新的替代方案引入市场，而不是固守目前昂贵的模式。

The Partners HealthCare Settlement and the Future of Health Care Organizations

Abstract A recent settlement between Massachusetts and Partners HealthCare, along with successful antitrust actions by the Federal Trade Commission, may signal the beginning of the end of two decades of consolidation of health care providers. This consolidation has been associated with higher prices resulting from market power, justifying the antitrust actions. However, the appropriate remedy for the health sector is a unique challenge. The proposed settlement appears to lock into place the legacy of the hospital-based delivery model, rather than orchestrating a pathway to a new care delivery models. Clearly, we need a regulatory framework that will introduce innovative alternatives into the market, not enshrine the current costly paradigm.
