SYNPOSIS
The physicians take a deep dive into the evolving employment models in the IR landscape. Dr. Trojan shares his journey from a private IR-DR blended practice to becoming directly employed by a hospital, highlighting the financial challenges, contract negotiations, and administrative dynamics along the way. He explains the growing loss of IR talent to lucrative diagnostic contracts and emphasizes the importance of advocating for IR’s value to hospital systems, from decreasing length of stay to supporting ECMO, trauma, and transplant services. The discussion covers financial security, administrative support, and the benefits of having aligned goals with the hospital in order to grow an IR practice. Dr. Trojan also addresses common misconceptions about IR and private practice, detailing how the landscape is likely to change over the coming years, and offers advice on navigating employment contracts.
