title: Moving on...or moving out? How you can develop a physician leadership retention and transition plan.
abstract: Few medical practices have transition plans to assist physician leaders seeking to return to full-time clinical practice or another role in the organization. All too often, the outgoing physician leader retires, becomes disengaged and inactive, or leaves the practice - in all cases depriving it of his/her experience and wisdom. Your practice should seek to retain physician leaders for the sake of the owners/shareholders, the physicians, the medical group and the community.
