Physicians and medical groups

Medical groups must keep up with care transformation and an evolving landscape marked by new practice models, investors, partnership opportunities, and physicians influencing market dynamics. We research doctors, medical groups, and the physician practice landscape to illuminate what matters most in today’s rapidly shifting ambulatory market.

TACKLE THESE CHALLENGES

Understand the most important trends in the physician landscape for practices and those who work with them by listening to the Radio Advisory physician playlist.

  • The war for physician talent will be won by those who meaningfully reduce physician burnout and improve work-life balance.
  • Employers of choice give their doctors meaningful autonomy, ample time, and seamless support to be both physicians and people.
  • Employers must track not only physician turnover but also intent to leave. About half of doctors have considered retiring early, switching employers, or leaving medicine altogether. 
  • To support physicians, organizations must tackle burnout on two levels: ensure easy access to resources for individual emotional needs and proactively make organizational changes to prevent future burnout.
  • We caution against making compensation the foundation of your employee value proposition. Pay your physicians competitively and ensure that your compensation model meets five universal best practices.
  • A primary care physician shortage is preventable. But only if executives adopt proven workflows interventions.
  • Physician buy-in is more important at independent practices than other medical groups.
  • Organizations must craft a physician-specific communication strategy by streamlining communication channels, increasing executive visibility, and creating forums for meaningful dialogue.
  • Create a thoughtful change management strategy by using our tools and templates, or bring us on-site for in-person presentations to help you build support for initiatives.
  • To augment your growth strategy, analyze future utilization as well as 5- and 10-year projections in your market with the Market Scenario Planner.
  • A strong governance structure is the foundation of every successful independent medical group. Use these resources to invest in your group’s governance model.
  • Expanding patient access remains an evergreen priority and prerequisite for winning patient loyalty
  • All organizations must embrace a coherent telehealth strategy to remain competitive.
