Well due to the rise of EHR and other tech complexities, many doctors are just joining mega-groups/networks that handle their IT just so they don't have to deal things such as integration.
The era of independent doctors is basically coming to a very fast end.
Where I live, there are two competing networks of doctors now that have basically absorbed thousands of doctors in the last 4 years with their signs literally plastered everywhere now.
Yay because arguably it's the only way doctor offices are going to keep up with ever changing tech.
Nay because Americans are going to get fucked in the ass even more by uncontrollable healthcare when the doctors networks become cartels.
