Competition
Competitive Landscape for California Physicians' Service
Demand for health insurance products is driven by the rising costs of medical care. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient operations and the ability to negotiate favorable contracts with healthcare providers.

Small companies can compete successfully by providing special coverage plans as part of government programs such as Medicaid, or for specialized populations. The industry is highly automated and capital-intensive: annual revenue per employee is close to $1 million. Reforming the US healthcare industry continues to be a top agenda item in Washington, but a consensus on the best way to reduce healthcare spending has yet to be reached. The managed healthcare industry will most certainly be impacted by any changes initiated by federal legislators.
