In addition, we’ve included real-life accounts of people who walk where you walk and meet the same challenges that make your life both interesting and difficult and help explain why simply hoping to improve has nothing to do with actually improving. This is a book about service — or, more to the point, how to meet the service expectations of patients and caregivers while preserving the fulfillment and career enthusiasm you expected when you entered the medical field. MGMA, founded in 1926, is the nation’s principal voice for medical group practice. MGMA’s 19,000 members manage and lead more than 11,500 organizations in which more than 237,000 physicians practice.
