Practice Landscape: Challenges and Needs in a Time of Practice Acquisition/Consolidation



The Medical Society of the State of New York, in coordination with the American Medical Association, is asking physicians to answer a survey to help inform our advocacy and legislative efforts. We are focusing today on the pressures some physicians feel from hospitals, insurers, and private equity groups to sell their practice and/or become employed by a large organization.


The survey should take about 8-9 minutes to complete for most of you; owners/partners in their practice will take closer to 10-11 minutes. Please keep in mind that you can restart where you left off if needed.


Results to numerical questions will only be presented in aggregate, and open-ended comments we might highlight will not include any identifying information.


Please click on the link to continue. You can start the survey and return to finish it at a later time if needed. Feel free to contact Molly Reese at the AMA (molly.reese@ama-assn.org) or Moe Auster at MSSNY (mauster@mssny.org) with any questions.
