A friend's brother, who is a radiologist, pays over $100K/year in New Jersey. Having something buy one out with a contract to deal with the lawsuit protections and problems would be tempting. Where I live (Michigan), the flow of ownerships seems to go from one or a few doctors joining an entity which associates itself to a particular hospital. That entity joins another entity which has hospitals in nearby counties. The last entity gets bought out by national; (this is similar to how local banks are disappearing). I do not understand the details of these mergers so I can't define entity. /BAH
