Service line excellence and growth don’t occur organically. They are the result of purposeful planning, and these plans must dovetail with the vision, strategic direction, and strengths of the health system. The transition to value calls for health systems to rethink and redesign care delivery across services lines. But they cannot do it without the support of physicians in those service lines. Comanagement and gainsharing are complementary financial arrangements that facilitate hospital/physician alignment through enhancements in service line performance.
