Developing leadership: management skills for small group practices.
The role of group administrators is changing as quickly as is the group practice environment. The results of a survey of physicians and administrators in physician-owned group practices with fewer than 15 physicians offers some guidance. Physicians and administrators, the results show, have similar expectations for administrators. They also agree that physician-administrator teamwork has become more professional. The results also suggest that administrators need the tools to be proactive planners for their organizations, rather than passively responding to change.
