The traditional group practice model can take many forms, including general practitioners, specialists, and combinations, as well as solo practitioners sharing space and staff, partnerships, and other legal entities. These practices may share some or all staff functions, including contracting for some functions. The essential characteristic is that those treating patients also have full control over and often direct management of the business aspects of the practice. The most important requirements for success in this model may be a common philosophy of patient care and mutual trust regarding business matters.

Healthcare delivery in the United States, including dental services, has changed rapidly in the last few years, and will continue to change in the years to come. Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Partners (OMSP) was initially formed to specialize in the unique issues of running the business aspects of an oral surgery practice. Over the past 17 years we have grown to the point of including 25 practices, in most specialty fields, primarily solo practitioners and small partnerships. The need for this service is a direct function of the increasing requirements for and complexity of the business aspects of small businesses and the need to ensure quality standards in health care.
