title: "Fed" issues PSO solvency standards.
abstract: The federal government has issued the solvency standards that provider-sponsored organizations (PSOs) must meet to serve Medicare beneficiaries on a capitated basis. These standards are intended to make certain that PSOs are financially able to serve Medicare beneficiaries and protect them from financial harm should an organization go broke. More than a few of these organizations may lose a lot of money.
