    • To analyze physician decision-making in mixed fee-for-service and Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) environments.
    • To identify the potential for cognitive dissonance within these mixed systems.
    • To propose strategies for physician leaders to manage cognitive dissonance and ensure future group success.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative analysis of physician decision-making processes.
    • Exploration of cognitive dissonance theory in a healthcare context.
