Vantaggi
Working with wonderful physicians. The model is a great patient friendly concept but poorly executed and not provider friendly.
Svantaggi
Micromanaging 24/7. Front desk staff run the center and providers day. Too many meetings on how to better serve/treat patients (AKA how to save more money). Absolutely terrible communication I have been working in healthcare for 17+ years and this is the worst communication tactics I have seen in my career. They drive all of the good employees away. As a nurse practitioner I was treated very poorly was treated like I was a glorified nurse. This is despite research that proves nurse practitioner outcomes are comparable with physician outcomes. They do not care about evidence-based practice or research that proves his point. They want physician driven care.
