Findings from two surveys of all physicians in Pima County, Arizona, in 1985 and 1990 to determine the trajectory of hospital/physician relationships suggest that conflicts have increased in almost all areas. Physicians report the greatest number of and increase in conflicts in traditional problem areas such as the quality of nursing and response to equipment requests. They report a smaller increase in conflicts relating to the new competitive marketplace, including hospital efforts to influence medical practice. Both types of problems are most prevalent among younger physicians. The new marketplace thus appears to exacerbate traditional hospital/physician conflicts more than it generates new areas of contention.
