Abstract:
:This paper will address the complex issues of effective cost management and declining inpatient volume. Utilizing a microcomputer-based physician incentive compensation program, it will show how a hospital developed a plan to increase inpatient hospital utilization and improve cost management. It will discuss the Internal Revenue, HCFA, and legal implications of the plan.
