AI can either tighten institutional control over physicians or restore autonomy and human‑centered care. The difference isn’t technology, it’s who holds the strings.

Many physicians leave hospital or private‑equity owned practices only to recreate the same factory model they wanted to escape. Real differentiation comes from rejecting throughput medicine in favor of human‑centered care.

AI may assist clinicians, but replacing them creates a liability gap. Malpractice caps protect physicians, not algorithms, and the risk exposure is unlimited.

The FTC has abandoned a blanket ban on noncompetes, but is aggressively enforcing them in healthcare. What physician groups and physicians need to know now.

AI won’t replace radiologists, but it will change throughput, FTE math, and leverage in hospital contracts. Groups that ignore this will lose negotiating ground.

Nearly 30% of anesthesiologists are projected to leave practice by 2033, creating a workforce shortage hospitals can’t ignore. How can hospital-based groups can turn the reality into real negotiating leverage — before the window closes.

Hospitals talk about “alignment,” but when leadership changes or incentives shift, the relationship often looks very different.

Mark F. Weiss sat down to chat with Justin Harvey, ChFC, CFP, a well-known financial planner whose practice focuses heavily on working with anesthesiologists and pain management physicians, about preserving wealth, not just accumulating it. The talk centered on the importance of having hard money conversations to keep your family together.

Four surgeons practicing together, ophthalmologists, for example, plan to build their own ASC. It goes without saying that they would think that distributions from their ASC must be in proportion to ownership interests. But that’s not necessarily true.

When a hospital system terminates a 35‑year relationship with its ER group, it tells you far more about leadership than about performance.
