Anyone partner up with a MD/Do for a practice?

Hi,

 

I have currently partnered up with an MD in Houston to start our own practice. It's kind of like a "franchise," however, he already owns 5 other clinics to which he is the sole owner of them all. This is the first time he is having a business partner in general. I am going to be running the practice solely and have him as my supervising physician. I will be an employee and partner.

Hello, if I may ask, as a patner, what's the modality for sharing? 60/40 or 70/30 and in addition, as an emplyee, what do you get as salary and benefits? Thank you.

At my practice there are 3 partners, 2MDs and 1PA. They each get paid relative to their productivity. I.e. If one provider brings in 40% of the revenue - that provider gets 40% of the net profit after salaries and overhead are paid. The PA typically ends up netting 200-250 per year.

That's good, seems you have great physicians as partners, most of them I learnt are very greedy; sometimes, some of these greedy ones have their wives as office managers and want to boss you around and report to them.

What type of practice is this? Asking for a friend...

Not a partner but I just joined a private practice with  a bc Nephrologist/Internal Med doc. It’s just the two of us. He has 2 different practices one with his Nephrology clients because he is medical director for DaVita dialysis and the second business is my side doing home visits and clinic work.

Hello JAPA07.

How is it going after one year in your partnership?

Thanks in advance. Have a lovely day.

Good morning Elpatodog.

What is does 'bc' mean in 'bc Nephrologist/Internal Med doc'?

How do you like this work? How many home visits do you do? I'd like to add home visits to my primary care work.

Thanks in advance. Have a good day.

Just perusing the thread and saw your question, in this case, the 'bc' likely means board certified

Hi,

It's been 2.5 years in and I am ready to be bought out. I want to grow and he wants to play it safe. Need to evaluate what is your partners goals and see if they align with yours before you become partners. My mistake! However, I am so thankful for the opportunity to team up with this Doc. I have learned SO much in running a business and what it takes and am ready to do it on MY OWN!

Looking at this now.  Thinking the 40 percent is a reasonable start point for owners pay.  Would you agree?
