Abstract

Formation of a large orthopaedic group practice and practicing within this group carries many risks that are not present in a small group practice. The current authors will discuss the complexity of merging groups, forming corporate policy, hiring executive administrative staff, contracting issues with insurance companies, expanding services and developing ancillary income sources, and the complex interpersonal relationships of a large group practice.
