This report summarizes the results of the 2006 Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) Provider Survey of primary care physicians, specialists, office managers, and dental providers.

Survey responses allow for comparison between AHCCCS-contracted health plans and assessment of the AHCCCS program in general.
