We are in the same position of a start-up hospital-based PC Service. One of my many questions is outpatient follow-up of managed care patients. Does anyone have experience with getting contracts with medical groups to provide outpatient palliative care services to their patients? My first thought is that it may be well nigh impossible, but if anyone has had any successes, please share them!
