    Main Results:

    • Recommends that physicians in non-integrated private practices be permitted to negotiate with health plans on issues affecting quality and access.
    • Opposes physician strikes, service limitations, price-fixing, and anticompetitive actions.
    • Supports negotiating rights for employed physicians and residents, emphasizing that educational content should not be subject to negotiation.

    Conclusions:

    • Physician collective negotiation should focus on improving patient care and access, not on anticompetitive practices.
    • Advocates for distinct negotiating units for physicians, excluding non-physician providers.
    • Stresses the importance of voluntary membership in negotiating organizations and accessible conflict-resolution mechanisms.
