How To Join, Buy Or Merge A Physician's Practice

A practical guide for residents, fellows, and physicians making career decisions, this book provides tools, techniques, and resources that can be employed in the job search, in evaluating opportunities, in negotiating contracts, and in making job transitions. The book helps readers identify goals, assemble support systems of advisors, access resources, evaluate positions and practices, employ negotiating skills so they can obtain favorable contract terms, secure the best practice opportunities available, and make the transition with security--and confidence that they have made the best decision based on their individual preferences. Charts, tables, query lists, and anecdotes are included throughout to educate, stimulate questions, and help readers identify and avoid problems.
