The pace of change in primary and specialty care practices has never been more accelerated.


A recent study by the Physician’s Advocacy Institute, showed an eye-popping 50 percent increase in hospital-owned practices from 2012–2015. All over the country, independent physician-owned primary and specialty care practices are opting for a steady paycheck in exchange for increased patient capture and referral volume from an acquiring hospital system.
