a Based on data from the American Hospital Association (AHA) and Modern Healthcare (see Appendix B). Affiliating providers include hospitals and health systems.
b The increase in the total number of formal affiliations between 1993 and 1994 may be related to:
  1. the fact that prior to 1994 hospital affiliations were monitored only by the AHA and not by Modern Healthcare, so that some cases might have been missed.

  2. the clarification of the Department of Justice review guidelines for hospital affiliations during that time period (see text).
