title: The need for a new model of care: revisiting the archetype.
abstract: Managed care organizations are refusing to accept the traditional academic health center's uncoordinated teaching model for their patients. They know that successful capitation can only be achieved when care is viewed from a population perspective, managed along a continuum, and coordinated at every point. Of the many changes that must occur, the care delivery paradigm, is a major area that needs to be redesigned.
