It is clear that dramatic changes are taking place in the way health care organizations are being managed. Health care executives are having to make the transition from managing with a "pass the cost along to the consumer" perspective to one of extreme competitive pressure to reduce costs while maintaining appropriate levels of quality. Reports the results of a survey of 135 American hospitals' executives. Uses factor analysis to uncover four distinct strategies being operationalized. Classifies hospitals' strategies as: strategic analysers, externally focused and offensively proactive; quality providers, internally-focused and defensive reactors; price negotiators, externally-focused and offensively reactive; or cost efficiency providers, internally focused and defensively proactive.
