PSROs (Professional Standards Review Organizations) were established in 1970 to review and evaluate the medical care given to patients eligible to use Medicaid and Medicare services. They were designed to ensure that healthcare providers were meeting certain standards of care and not over-utilizing resources. DRGs (Diagnosis-Related Groups) were also established in the same time period but are not directly related to the review and evaluation of medical care given to Medicaid and Medicare patients. HMOs and PPOs are types of healthcare insurance plans and the AMA (American Medical Association) is a professional organization for physicians.
