Exceeding expectations. Execs of 1-year-old Premier detail ambitious plans.

At Premier's first anniversary shareholder meeting and governance conference last week, top executives were quick to counter skeptics of the two-part merger that formed the nation's largest hospital alliance a little more than a year ago. They pointed to the merged alliance's raft of accomplishments during the past year and promised more to come.

Outsourcing moves into new territory.

More and more healthcare executives are hiring outsiders to shoulder burdens they once carried in-house. Delegating some support services, such as laundry, is nothing new. But relentless pressure to cut costs and rapid system consolidation have executives scrambling for new solutions to business problems. These days few functions are exempt from being contracted out.

Outlook 1997. Batten down the hatches. Execs need to prepare for scrutiny of deals by citizens, regulators and the media.

Our reporters make their prognostications for a dozen major segments of the healthcare industry in 1997. A common thread runs through them: as mergers and consolidations continue to sweet through the industry, communities and regulators are becoming increasingly concerned about whether the public interest is being served. And, our reporters say, scrutiny of such deals is going to get even more intense.

Lens membrane properties following hydrogen peroxide exposure.

Rabbit lenses exposed to 0.5 mM hydrogen peroxide for 1 h and then incubated for an additional 19 h demonstrated small yet significant changes in electrolyte balance. Active cation pumping by the lens, as determined by 86Rb uptake studies, was partially impaired following 1 h hydrogen peroxide exposure; the cation pump further deteriorated during the subsequent 19-hour incubation. Passive membrane permeability of the lens, measured by 86Rb efflux, was elevated following 1 h hydrogen peroxide but no further increase in leakiness was observed during the subsequent 19-hour incubation. These findings suggest that even relatively brief exposure to oxidative damage initiates a chain of events from which the lens is unable to recover.
