    Established group practices (EGPs) can help overcome physician shortages in rural areas. A model of associated group practices (AGPs) demonstrates success in creating new rural physician practices.

    Area of Science:

    • Health Services Research
    • Rural Health
    • Physician Workforce

    Background:

    • Rural areas face significant physician shortages, leading to medically underserved populations.
    • Barriers to physician recruitment and retention in rural settings are multifaceted.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the role of established group practices (EGPs) in mitigating rural physician shortages.
    • To present a model of associated group practices (AGPs) for rural community development.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing a model where smaller associated group practices (AGPs) are linked to a larger, established group practice (EGP).
    • Describing the implementation of this model by the Lovelace Medical Foundation in New Mexico.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • The Lovelace Medical Foundation successfully established three rural group practices using the AGP model.
    • Planning for a fourth rural group practice was underway.

    Conclusions:

    • The associated group practice (AGP) model, supported by established group practices (EGPs), offers a viable strategy for expanding physician presence in rural communities.
    • This approach can address critical healthcare access issues in underserved rural areas.
