ISMIE Risk Management invites you to their event

Tumultuous Past and Tenuous Future: Trends and Their Impact on Physicians

About this event

As the U.S. healthcare system attempts to recover from COVID, we are bombarded by questions and challenges: What will the “new normal” of the post- or perpetual-COVID healthcare landscape look like? What are the implications of the fact that in 2020, for the first time in history, the majority of employed physicians were employed by different kinds of corporations, including insurance companies, venture capital and private equity firms, pharmacy chains, retailers, and others? How do we help our workforce recover to attain sustainability while dealing with growing threats and violence in the workplace? These trends challenge physicians as never before. This presentation will examine the broad implications of the pandemic on physician practice and liability, and drill down to assess the issues and risks attendant to these trends.
