- Share via
CYPRESS — San Diego-based FPA Medical Management Inc. said Wednesday it has expanded its agreement to provide physicians for patients in PacifiCare Health Systems Inc. managed-care plans.
FPA, whose doctors already treat PacifiCare members in Arizona, California and Texas, said it will extend services to Cypress-based PacifiCare in at least two new areas by the end of 1997.
Financial terms weren’t disclosed.
FPA represents doctors in negotiations with managed-care plans. Under the contracts, doctors receive a set fee for each patient regardless of how much care is given.
PacifiCare, the nation’s fifth-largest managed-care company, has about 4 million people enrolled in its health-care plans.
