Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Medical practice mergers provide one of the few remaining "clout-enhancing" strategies for physicians. Mergers can create significant benefits for the physicians involved. Achieving these benefits requires overcoming many obstacles and potential pitfalls. This article addresses the benefits to be gained and the difficulties to avoid, and provides an overview of the merger process.
