The groundwork for MSO was established in 1984 with the
formation of DMI, a privately owned healthcare holding
company. MSO's founder Dr. Jacob Dagan, a seasoned
biomedical engineer, was set on developing computerized
solutions for cardiac monitoring.Starting from the
basement of his home, he founded
Heart Guard ultimately becoming one of the
leading providers of cardiac monitoring services (TTM)
serving over 20 states with revenues of over $5m within
12 months.
Since then, MSO has been involved in the development
of product based and service based healthcare ventures,
and continuously provides consulting services leveraging
its experience with regulatory affairs and technology
integration.

BMI went on to develop and deploy the latest in
cardiac diagnostic testing. In 1995 BMI was the first
diagnostic testing facility to perform 2 day gated
SPECT studies - a modality that has since become the
milestone of cardiac nuclear stress testing in the
years that followed. The facility ultimately provided
services to over 600 physicians in the areas of
Nuclear Testing (cardiac, thyroid, bone, renal and
more), Ultrasonography, Bone Mineral Testing for
Osteoporosis and monitoring services. DMI's interest

TIC/TOC: DMI developed several
managed care policy programs collectively known as
TIC/TOC: Target Incidence/Target Outcome Capitation.
TIC/TOC capitation is a risk-sharing model which
allows for rigorous controls over the quality of
healthcare delivery. By realigning the incentives of
specialists, TIC/TOC transforms the primary
physician’s task from gatekeeper to patient advocate.
In doing so, TIC/TOC has shown to trigger significant
reduction in the perscription of unnecessary
procedures. MSO developed and implemented a new
approach to control the costs of cardiac clinical
care, managing the 3 levels of candidate
identification: Clinical analysis, diagnostic testing
and the invasive procedure. The concept is based on
"Contact Capitation" of a full service, i.e. a fixed
price for diagnosing a cardiac patient (regardless of
the number of tests required) and a fixed price for
interventional treatment, including catheterization
and surgery if needed. Target Outcome Capitation (TOC)
was introduced in the middle of 1996. The plan
provides powerful controls over the quality of
procedures performed and provides an incentive for
participating physicians to provide the best of
service while controlling costs.

MSO's Physician Network
MSO acts as an integrator of unique capitation
programs with networks of specialists, hospitals and
outpatient facilities. Managed care organizations
which implement these models can experience
significant savings over traditional capitation models
and case rates. MSO’s packages require sophisticated
information management systems to take full advantage
of the inherent benefits.
