NAMCP
Download detailed PDF Members: The mission of the National Association of Managed Care Physicians is to enhance the ability of practicing physicians and other health care professionals through accredited continuing medical education programs, research and communication, to succeed in managed care environments and integrated delivery systems.The NAMCP was founded in 1991 to serve the interests and needs of physicians working in any form of managed health care. NAMCP is a non-profit association run by physicians for physicians.Since physicians affect 85% of the expense side in health care, they should take a proactive role in developing the best delivery system for patients in managed health care, thereby increasing quality, reducing costs and improving practice performance and clinical outcomes.Physician-directed managed health care is important for all providers and patients. Today's health care expenses exceed one trillion dollars; we believe physicians and patients should be educated about all aspects of managed health care in order to control costs and deliver high quality health care. New terms such as disease management and demand management will benefit patients if both physicians and patients understand and participate with these systems in a proactive manner. For any system to work, we must have educated patients as well as physicians, in order to make appropriate decisions in an examination room.
