  • Title: They may want to take charge, but can physicians really organize?
    Author: Baker JJ.
    Journal: J Health Care Finance; 1995; 21(3):6-8. PubMed ID: 7600240.
    Abstract:
    Current managed care network models include physician organizations (POs) and fully integrated regional groups (FIRGs). Proper organization of such networks requires a sequence of essential organizational decisions. If physicians are to organize properly, they must avoid three major pitfalls. Of these, the loss of autonomy is the greatest threat. The proper fit of organizational structure with the founders can assist the entire process significantly.
