Abstract
Unless acquired physicians are managed carefully, many will flee the acquiring networks in anger and frustration. Because older networks relied on a self-selected population of physicians, the newer networks will have to develop alternative strategies to motivate those physicians who did not self-select for employment. This article makes recommendations about how to build a corporate practice culture under these new conditions.Keywords
