A Group Practice Without Walls
Group Practice Without Walls - Vincent Audinot
A GPWW or group practice without walls is formed by physicians in established practices who come together to form a legal professional corporation. As a single legal entity, the group practice can act on behalf of its physician/employees without fear of violating antitrust, safe harbors and other regulations that limit solo physicians from planning and working together. The key elements to setting up a GPWW are:
• The physicians maintain their separate office locations and operational control over their support staffs, equipment, medical records, and clinical relationships with patients.
• Practice income and expenses are tracked through the group practice's central financial books to each physician's "profit center" so that the individual's productivity and cost-effective management are rewarded.
• Physicians become employees of the group practice.
• Support staff members become employees of the group practice or of a separate management company that contracts with the professional corporation for management services. Opportunity to share overhead costs and even revenue among physicians.
3. Opportunities to refer to and enjoy profits from group-owned ancillaries and other medically related businesses. Group practice ownership of ancillaries is one of the few remaining "safe harbors."
