SAN MATEO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Hawaii Independent Physicians Association (Hawaii IPA) is working with Cave Consulting Group, Inc. (CCGroup) to access accurate and reliable physician efficiency (cost-of-care) and effectiveness (quality process of care) scores. “A main reason is that Hawaii IPA accepts capitation payment for Medicare Advantage patients.
