    Reorganizing a medical clinic into a group practice model reduced patient costs and improved access. Patient satisfaction remained largely unchanged, demonstrating the model

    Area of Science:

    • Health Services Research
    • Medical Practice Management
    • Patient Satisfaction Studies

    Background:

    • Traditional medical clinics often face challenges with patient access and wait times.
    • Evaluating practice models is crucial for improving healthcare delivery and patient experience.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the impact of transitioning a traditional medical clinic to a group practice model on patient satisfaction.
    • To determine if a group practice model affects healthcare costs and utilization.

    Main Methods:

    • A controlled trial with randomized patients and physicians was conducted.
    • The group practice model featured decentralized registration, extended clinic hours, and dedicated care teams.
    • Patient satisfaction, access, wait times, and healthcare utilization were measured before and after reorganization.

    Main Results:

    • Patients in the group practice model experienced significant decreases in healthcare charges and utilization.
    • Perceived improvements in physician access, reduced clinic wait times, and shorter appointment lag times were reported.
    • Overall patient satisfaction and general health perceptions remained comparable between the traditional and group practice models.

    Conclusions:

    • A group practice organizational model can effectively reduce patient healthcare costs.
    • This model can enhance patient-perceived access and efficiency without negatively impacting overall patient satisfaction.
