Structures of Medical Practices

Explain the structures of medical practices (e.g., solo practice, group practice, or multispecialty groups). Research your own geographic region (town, city, county, or state) to find out the most predominant structure found in your community and provide insight into why that structure emerged as the prevailing way to organize office-based medical care.

Impact of Law on Practices
