APSF is concerned that the explosive expansion in OBA for an increasing number and variety of surgical procedures has occurred without appropriate considerations for patient safety.

 GPOBA
Output-Based Aid (OBA) is a strategy for using explicit performance-based subsidies to support the delivery of basic services where policy concerns would justify public funding to complement or replace user-fees.
Affordability concerns for particular groups of users, positive externalities, or the infeasibility of imposing direct user-fees represent examples of the types of policy concerns that have motivated governments to use public funds to support the delivery of basic services.
OBA involves delegating service delivery to a third-party, typically private firms, but also public utilities, NGOs, and community-based organizations, under contracts that tie disbursement of the public funding to the services or outputs actually delivered.

 <nick:node> : Office Business Applications (OBAs)
OBAs (or Office Business Applications) are a new class of enterprise composite applications that aim to close the Results Gap by connecting people (with their messy collaboration) to structured business processes.
The concept of an OBA is certainly not new -- custom solutions that integrate Office client applications with backend systems through web services, and commercial applications such as SAP/Microsoft Duet are all good concrete examples of OBA implementations.
I personally feel OBAs represent a very neat approach to solving many real-world challenges faced by enterprises.

The Pirates also must move Tike Redman and his.226 OBA to the eighth spot in the batting order and give the leadoff spot to Jason Kendall and his.414.
