You refer to "competition from the groups", but can you explain exactly what these competitive factors are? Are people actually checking prices of services? I think most are not. While many doctors appreciate the opportunity to get away from the administrative burden, I've worked with a significant number who have tried it and did not like it.

And I've worked with a good number who felt pressure to move into a larger group organization and just chose to retire instead.

Anyone who argues that the health care environment with respect to physician providers is getting better simply doesn't understand what is going on with them. I've not met one, NOT ONE, who supports Obamacare. I know some do, but I know a lot of doctors and I've not heard one yet speak in a complimentary way about it. Many are scared shitless because unlike most Americans, they do realize we haven't seen the bulk of the changes yet.
