Not a bad assessment.
Just got back from Washington. Read in the 'Post' last Saturday that a
large number of HMOs have dumped their service provision contracts with
MediCare. Too much work, too many specs, too high a cost and little
money coming in from MediCare.
I expect some of these large HMOs would relish the prospect of
expanding into greenfield markets.
