In the medical/health insurance business...?

what exactly is capitation vs. decapitation.
is decapitation just taking off the borders?
Answers:
Capitation, as an example, is the HMO paying the primary doctor a set fee to be responsible for the care of that contestant, regardless of what is needed, to some extent of course. It might be like a retainer next to a lawyer. A specified fee regardless if service is rendered.

Decapitation is what terrorists do. Beheading. Unless it is constituent of the above. Source(s): insurance agent
I worked in the medical insurance billing for years and never heard the possession "decapitation" used. Are you sure this term was for billing instead of a diagnoses?
