Part one of the three-part survey tapped 2,398 physician leaders, CMOs and senior-level medical executives from a range of healthcare settings to gauge physician’s ideas on healthcare reform, leadership competencies and the move to alternative models of care.
Here are four key findings from the survey.
- A majority of physician leaders — 55 percent — reported they felt the Affordable Care Act is “more good than bad.”
- A majority of respondents — 57 percent — agree or strongly agree accountable care organizations are here to stay.
- Even more respondents — 63 percent — disagree or strongly disagree that eliminating fee-for-service medicine in favor of value-based payments will hurt the quality of patient care.
- Most respondents — 58 percent — agree or strongly agree it is positive that the profession is seeing increased transparency about physicians’ business dealings.
