It's common to hear the analogy comparing organizing physicians to "herding cats." Actual practice proves the adage false. Physicians are taking leadership roles in the formation of integrated systems across the country. Their input is proving invaluable. Based on case studies of integrated systems, the authors answer commonly asked questions about physician leaders, including: Should physician leaders be specilists? Should they continue to practice? and What will expensive physicians do to our administrative overhead?
常能听到这样的类比，将组织医生比作“放牧猫群”。实际情况证明这句谚语是错误的。医生们正在全国各地的整合系统组建过程中发挥领导作用。他们的意见被证明具有极高价值。基于整合系统的案例研究，作者回答了关于医生领导者的常见问题，包括：医生领导者应该是专科医生吗？他们应该继续行医吗？以及高薪医生会对我们的行政开支产生什么影响？
