Abstract
This article has the purpose of understanding, based on institutional logic, the factors that are part of the doctor-patient relationship from the doctor's perception, in the frontline area of a healthcare organization in Cali. In the development of the research, an exploratory-descriptive qualitative methodology was developed, through 23 interviews with general practitioners, which were analyzed with the systemic approach of qualitative data of the Grounded Theory. The empirical evidence was able to identify the recurring factors and interrelationships of the different logics that intervene in the doctor-patient relationship, grouping them into four dimensions: medical, organizational, social, and educational. The interaction between all the institutional logics reflects the complexity of the doctor-patient relationship and the need to manage it in a multidirectional manner. This research contributes to the literature on management, more specifically the institutional logics that allow to elucidate the perception of one of the groups of actors involved in the daily activities that intervene in the doctor-patient relationship, as voices of the multiple competing logics involved.
