California Bill Seeks to Prevent Hospital Administrators from Practicing Medicine Without a License — Roy Poses

Doctors are highly trained medical professionals trying to survive in a complex sociopolitical system. We have been pawns utilized by hospitals and government for our knowledge and skills, yet more recently expected not to have a voice or opinion.

As a physician in private practice for 40 years, changes in the past 10 years have been difficult. It was hard for me to hear non-medical business administrators force cut-rate medicine compromising evidence-based patient care.

Not just hospital administrators. Government and insurance administrators as well. trying to "save money" for the interests they present and that it not the public.

Naked Capitalism
