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.
