Setting Up a Practice—Areas to Consider
Nobody teaches physicians how to set up a practice, but thousands of physicians start new practices or merge with other practices every year.
If you’re going to set up a practice, you need to consider the following:
- Legal and other requirements
- Financial considerations
- Staffing
- Equipping the practice
- Office location
- Marketing
