Despite in the United States, PHOs or Physician-Hospital Organizations have been in decline, they are making a comeback. The PHO is defined as a legal entity formed by physicians and one or more hospital with the intention of negotiating contracts with payers and sharing in the financial rewards of controlling cost while delivering high-quality care. (Farlex, 2014). PHO is best described in three ways:

The health facility in this case study experienced several problems and issues beyond possible solution efforts by the time. One of the main problems is based on the perfect way of handling the various challenges attributed to a shift from the hospital’s fee-for-service in the case of managing care environment. Besides, some local physicians were loyal to Dr. William and had the necessary flexibility and availability to assist the doctor in various ways, but today they are no longer available to assist the doctor towards the achievement of his medical and societal mission. The physicians were always available and loyal to the doctor and they could volunteer their efforts especially in cases of physician shortages in the health center. The physicians cannot afford the time they once used for volunteering activities in the health facility to assist Dr. Williams (Swayne, 2008). The reason behind this problem is that the physicians have now been employed by various managed health care organizations. Others have been involved in various contractual agreements such that the partners prohibit them from working with the health care facility. Although the health care facility has a few small groups or individuals offering primary care, these individuals and small groups are still struggling to survive in the industry. As such, the majority of them cannot

RECOMMENDATION There is “an inherent conflict between best care and financial performance”. The CEO states that “Finances are not, and never have been, our primary concern.” However, the business must address its decreasing profitability to be able to continue to survive. This will become even more urgent if the reduced government spending that the CEO foresees happens. The organizational culture is high quality care, high-performance and non-profit which must be taken into account in any solution. The healthcare business has a clear focus and is very successful at continually improving its patient care and processes. While clinical performance improvements have resulted in revenue losses for the Intermountain healthcare business the Intermountain health plan, SelectHealth, and other health plans that buy Intermountain health care services have benefitted. Intermountain needs to translate these benefits into additional profits to support its main business, healthcare. Its skill at providing this care should translate into significant market advantage for SelectHealth and for Intermountain when selling
