According to the text, a significant amount of revenue that
the healthcare industry generates can be directly linked to the
care that physicians provide for their patients. In addition,
physicians in a medical practice add to this revenue stream by
admitting patients to a hospital, prescribing prescription
medication, ordering home health services and medical equipment,
