According to the report:
- About three-fourths (73 percent) plan to seek employment with a hospital or large group practice.
- Just 10 percent planned to join private practice, down from 20 percent in 2008.
- About two-thirds say they are dissatisfied with the education they have received in regard to practice management, ownership and coding and billing.
