An integrated delivery system (IDS), also known as integrated delivery network (IDN), is a health system with a goal of logical integration of the delivery (provision) of health care as opposed to a fragmented system or a disorganized lack of system.

The term has sometimes been used in a broad sense with reference to managed care in general (as opposed to fee-for-service care), but in the United States it now more often refers to any specific network of health care organizations constituting a corporate group that attempts to integrate care to some degree (that is, to coordinate the patient journey across care transitions). Some IDSs have an HMO component, while others are a network of physicians only, or of physicians and hospitals. Thus, the term is used broadly to define an organization that provides a continuum of health care services.[1]

Background

The guiding business model and philosophical goal of the IDN is to serve as a self-contained healthcare ecosystem, with the ability to contain the entirety of the patient experience to coordinate care and manage population health.[2] Examples of IDNs include Kaiser Permanente,[3] UPMC, Mayo Clinic, Geisinger Health System, and Intermountain Healthcare.

Five factors that can be used to assess the advancement level of a particular IDN include provider alignment, continuum of care, regional presence clinical integration, and reimbursement.[4]

Reception

Alain Enthoven, the Marriner S. Eccles Professor of Public and Private Management, at the Stanford University Graduate School of Business, argues that IDSs align incentives and resources better than most healthcare delivery systems, leading to improved medical care quality while controlling costs.[5]

Consolidation among IDNs in the United States has critics who say these networks may actually be trending the cost curve upward. An interview of health insurers regarding Partners HealthCare’s proposed acquisition of the Care New England Health System, for example, exposed the trepidation insurers have regarding IDN leverage over payers.[6]. Acquisition of medical groups in pursuit of integrated delivery network status has also raised flags with critics saying physician/provider consolidation leads to higher patient expenditures.[7]

Proponents of IDN development and associated health system mergers feel that mergers can provide substantial benefits including increased economies of scale, reduced capital costs, and clinical standardization along with reduced operating expenses and a statistically significant decline in revenue per patient admission.[8]
