title: Presbyterian Healthcare Services: New Mexico's managed care leader.
abstract: In 1997, PHS enhanced its presence in the managed care market by adding a large HMO to its health plan and snagging the largest part of state Medicaid managed care contracts. The health plan, once the source of only 15% of the system's revenue, is fast becoming the dominate component of the healthcare delivery system--a source of discontent for those who liked the old system. Find out the strategy behind these changes and plans for the future.
