Abstract

This is part of a case series. The SCF B case follows Dr Doug Eby, vice president of medical services, as he negotiates financial constrictions and analyzes the needs of SCF's customer-owners (patients). The case explores SCF's team model, data support, and physical infrastructure as it pertains to primary care delivery. Challenges of behavioral health integration are introduced and considered with SCF's unique financing system in mind. Themes of customer-owner-physician relationships, patient agency, addressing community needs, access, and cost / value are also highlighted.
