Abstract

Physician restructuring is occurring rapidly as physicians are readily leaving solo practice and joining group practices, including multi-specialty group practices. Organizational theory provides a framework for the rationale and management of physician restructuring in this environment of managed care. Through studying Open Systems Theory, Population Ecology and Strategic Adaptation Models, Institutional Theory, Resource Dependency Theory, Group Theory, Exchange Theory, and Transaction Costs Economics, one can better understand the environment, and operational and management issues which surround physician group restructuring.
