Description
Summary:	This case addresses the continuing challenges of primary care physicians to remain independent and maintain their perceived worth in the market. In the case, a large independent group is confronted with a changing landscape on the payor front. Given this, several potential suitors (e.g., hospitals, private equity firms, pharmacy chains, and a health maintenance organization [HMO]) seek to acquire them. The group must decide whether it is feasible to remain independent, and if not, with whom it should merge, or be acquired.
