1. A network of physicians, hospitals, and other providers and facilities that are linked contractually to deliver comprehensive health benefits within a predetermined budget, sharing economic risk for any budget deficit or surplus.
2. A budget based on an estimate of the annual cost of delivering health care for a given population.
3. An established set of administrative rules requiring patients to follow the advice of administrative health care providers in order to have their health care paid for under the terms of the health plan.

I appreciate your effort even though it came a little late I checked your answer, and it was consistent with the answer key.
