These include provider practices such as medical offices and clinics, hospitals and nursing homes. There are about 200,000 medical offices, clinics, an

18、d other provider practices in the United States. Earlier in the 20th century most physicians were single people working in their own offices or in partnership with another doctor. Patients visited the office, received an examination or other service, and paid a fee. This traditional fee-for-service

19、medicine has been declining. Many physicians now practice in groups where they share the same offices and equipment with other doctors. Group practices may combine primary care physicians, several kinds of specialists, laboratories, and equipment for diagnosing disease. Physicians who practice in a

20、group reduce their own expenses and provide patients with a wider range of services. Many doctors are joining with hospitals, insurance companies, and industrial employers to provide managed care for groups of patients. These plans manage to avoid unnecessary services and reduce costs. Rather than t

21、aking a fee from each patient, managed care physicians may receive an annual salary from a fixed sum for each patient. Patients who are too sick for care in a doctors office go to a hospital. Hospitals offer Patients 24-hour care from a staff of health professionals. They provide services not availa

22、ble elsewhere, such as major surgery, child birth, and intensive care for the critically ill. Hospital care is the most expensive form of health care. Efforts to control health care costs have emphasized reducing the number of patients admitted to hospitals and their length of stay. During the 1980s

23、 and 1990s, these efforts led to the closing of more than 600 hospitals. Patients who need long-term medical care because of advanced age or chronic illness may stay in a nursing home.
