Sean Quinn will present, “Strengthening Hospital-Physician Group Alignment and Affiliation in the Age of Value-Based Care,” at the Arizona Society of Healthcare Attorneys on Wednesday, November 12, 2025.
This program addresses strategies to implement and improve affiliations and arrangements between hospitals and physician groups. The continuing rise of value-based programs has increased the need for hospital alignment and collaboration with physician groups, but the formation and operation of these arrangements requires understanding of the parties’ objectives, balancing of governance and authority, and consideration of risks under fraud and abuse laws. This session will review affiliation models, including co-management arrangements, joint ventures, and value-based enterprise, and identify structures, terms, and responsibilities aimed at achieving hospital goals of quality and performance while balancing physician independence and incentives. The session will also address the regulatory framework for such arrangements and common kickback issues arising during the hospital-physician group relationship.
