Quizplus · Accepted Answer

HMOs (Health Maintenance Organizations) provide payments to healthcare providers at a negotiated annual per capita rate. This means that members pay a fixed amount per year for access to a specific set of healthcare services. In return, the HMO provides medical care at little or no extra cost to the member, and healthcare providers receive a predetermined payment for their services. This payment model incentivizes HMO members to maintain their health and to seek preventive care, as well as incentivizes healthcare providers to provide efficient and cost-effective care.
