As such a thorough newlineunderstanding of the factors affecting their satisfaction is critical to the emergence of a better newlineway of imparting healthcare. Second, there has been found to be a significant positive newlinerelationship between physician satisfaction and patient satisfaction. Therefore greater physician newlinesatisfaction may lead to higher patient satisfaction and consequently higher patient compliance newlineand better outcomes. Finally, understanding of physician satisfaction is inherently interesting in newlineitself. A strong and thorough insight into the physician satisfaction is valuable as it will help us newlinein identifying the factors contributing to physician satisfaction and thus enable us to counsel the newlinecurrent physician and address the new entrants into the profession. This is may be very newlinesignificant as considerable time, effort and cost goes into training the physicians. newlineA plethora of factors have influenced the practice of medicine in unparallel ways throughout the newlinepast decade. Presently Indian healthcare system comprises of many actors and organizations newlineintertwined in a fragile and changing relationships. The existing understanding about physicians newlineinsight of their job is significantly scarce in Indian milieu. There is not much understanding newlineabout what drives and fulfills physicians about the practice of medicine or what influences their newlinebehavior. newlineThe purpose of this study is to develop a complete understanding of the factors that affect newlinephysician satisfaction using self developed physician satisfaction scale.
