Hey, at least the 'walls' in this model are virtual, not physical. I wonder if they have a virtual water cooler for the docs to chat at.

C) can't be right. If the member physicians can't own the GPWW, then how would it be considered a 'group practice'?

B) seems like the right choice. A GPWW has a lower degree of integration compared to an IPA, which typically has a more centralized structure.

I'm not sure, but I think C) member physicians cannot own the GPWW could also be a possibility.

This question is a real 'practice-al' one, isn't it? I hope the exam doesn't have too many more like this.
