Description

Focus
While the health care sector accounts for almost one-fifth of U.S. gross domestic product income, physicians are becoming a “slave to the system.” Similarly, to diagnosing an illness, we must examine all factors affecting the practice of medicine. Yes, a systemic replenishing of the health care landscape will require us to endure some pain. Physicians need to be poised to lead the national movement for a better relationship between “hurt and healing”.

Topics:

Factors that impact Physician Practice from corporate medicine to government influence
Options and Possible Solutions to Improve the Landscape
