This case focuses on the compensation system for a primary care physicians group at a large physician-hospital organization (PHO). Apogee comprised a diverse group of practices and was in the process of modifying a compensation system that it had developed and implemented one year earlier in a largely fee-for- service environment. The physician leaders need to decide how to change the system, given that a major payer, representing about 30% of its revenue, was switching from fee-for-service to capitation.
