A midwestern university offers its employees three choices for health care: a clinic-based health maintenance organization (HMO), a preferred provider organization (PPO), and a traditional fee-for-service program (FFS). Each year, the university designates an open enrollment period during which employees may change from one health plan to another. Prior to the last open enrollment period, 20% of employees were enrolled in the HMO, 25% in the PPO, and the remainder in the FFS. During the open enrollment period, 15% of employees in the HMO switched to the PPO and 5% switched to the FFS, 20% of the employees in the PPO switched to the HMO and 10% to the FFS, and 25% of the employees in the FFS switched to the HMO and 30% switched to the PPO.
