Dr. Vidor Friedman, President of the American College of Emergency Physicians, says there are few healthcare policy issues as pressing as finding a solution for out-of-network, or "surprising billing," of patients. Physicians take an oath to provide the best possible care we can—but that's not possible when our patients are afraid of getting a surprise bill for medical costs they thought would be covered by their insurance. Read more of his thoughts on #surprisemedicalbills in this Modern Healthcare letter to editor. http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMHt0 #Patients1st

New on the blog! We recently spoke with Dr. Nathan Schlicher about working with TeamHealth and his passion for healthcare and healthcare advocacy. http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMRpw
The social arrangement between providers and insurance companies creates a social safety net that allows all patients to receive emergency care – including the uninsured and indigent, who otherwise would have nowhere else to turn for care. But recently, the commercial insurance industry and the employer groups they represent have balked at this compact, taking great strides to reduce emergency clinician reimbursement by as much as 30%. This effort by insurers will put emergency medical delivery at risk of financial peril and endanger patients who rely on our emergency departments for critical care.
