Definition(s)

  • Harold S. Luft is a leading health services researcher. He is perhaps best known for his work on how health maintenance organizations (HMOs) achieve cost savings compared with fee-for-service medicine and his discovery of the volume-quality relationship in healthcare-the inverse relationship between the volume of hospital procedures performed and in-hospital patient mortality for certain surgeries and medical conditions. [Source: Encyclopedia of Health Services Research; Luft, Harold S.]
