Abstract
The current healthcare landscape is an unstable and complex terrain. Healthcare organizations are faced with evolving challenges emanating from partnerships, mergers, acquisitions, and closures. Reimbursement is decreasing from government and nongovernment payers, and is predicted to continue in this direction. There are increasing demands for improved outcomes from payers and the public. The population is aging. Chronic conditions are increasing. Access to primary care continues to be a challenge in rural and urban areas.
