Next on the bullet list: " Reverse racism is racism. " These are just words, until you define exactly what you mean. If you just mean that an ideology that treats a normally privileged caste as inferior is racism, as is an ideology that endorses a traditional hierarchy, sure. If someone were to claim that people of European descent are somehow inferior humans, and ought to be deprived of educational an economic opportunity and even the right to vote, that would be racism. However, that is obviously not what people are trying to assert, since nobody would argue with them.What they are really saying is that frankly ackn...

Leaving hospital employment: a physician ’ s pursuit of independence
After nearly a year of planning my exit strategy, my final day as a hospital-employed physician was June 30th, 2023. How surreal to finally be independent! In a recent phone call, a dear friend and fellow physician asked what drove me to my decision. “Because I felt like a failure every day,” I disclosed to

Why your physician career needs more than a contract lawyer for maximum compensation
During my tenure as a practicing physician, I’ve grasped that each patient necessitates and is entitled to comprehensive and unique follow-up care. Fascinatingly, this rule also relates to us, the contracted physicians. I’ve realized that a physician’s employment contract isn’t static; it is subject to deliberate and incidental alterations. The involvement of attorneys in contract

THCB 20th Birthday Classic: McKinsey wants to inspire lots of change; caveat emptor
by MATTHEW HOLT
So to celebrate 20 years, we’ll be publishing a few classics for the next week or so. This is one of my faves from the early days of THCB, back in 2006. It’s interesting to compare it with Jeff Goldsmith’s NEW piece from yesterday on vertical integration because at the time a pair of Harvard professors, Michael Porter and Elizabeth Teisberg were telling hospitals to change their operations in a way that seemed to me were going to destroy their business–cut down to one or two service lines they were best at and stop with the rest. McKinsey picked up on this and I went to town on wh...

Vertical Integration Doesn ’t Work in Healthcare: Time to Move On
Conclusion
Healthcare providers of all stripes must leave the industrial world behind. The value chains in health services are not physical, but rather comprised of human relationships, sustained by trust. Virtual care, the advent of AI in healthcare and consumer demand will require a flexible, 24/7 and care anywhere business model. Those who build the best modern clinical mousetrap will end up with a committed clinical staff and loyal patients. Healthcare isn’t about the building, or the brand, or scale. Surviving and thriving in the future will require engaged clinicians who foster trust on the part o...

Population Health Management: SDOH Challenges and Solutions
Conclusion
SDOH data collection has its challenges. The first step is to convince organizations and policymakers of its utility and promise to offer whole-person care. Without SDOH, providers are only taking in a fraction of their patient’s health. Therefore, the dismissal of SDOH only widens health disparity gaps and fuels a cycle of reduced patient engagement.
However, the use of focused SDOH benchmarking, routine screening assessments, and robust analytics tools can help organizations take steps toward greater health equity. This gives each patient the potential to achieve and maintain optimal physical hea...

The corporatization of medicine: Part One
This will be a multi-part series. The days of independent community hospitals and small
physician practices are just about over. Paul Starr ’s famous book The Social
Transformation of American Medicine tells the story
of rise of a “sovereign” medical profession, consisting largely of
entrepreneurs who owned their own individual or small group practices and made
their living as independent business people. They were generally suspi cious of
alternative models such as large group practice and salaried employment. But recent
decades have been marked by one overarching trend: the consolidation of the

What happens if I don ’ t give the notice required under my physician employment agreement?
Many physicians ask if there is any reason why they can’t just give two weeks’ notice (or so) and leave a bad situation, even though their employment agreement requires significantly longer notice for without cause termination of the physician employment contract. The question is usually phrased as, “What can they do to me?” Often, there
