🚨Why Cardiology Practices Are Disappearing?🚨 This Cardiac Wire article highlights ongoing issues I see daily when speaking with physicians. Most of the providers I speak with are solely focused on delivering the best patient care they can, while trying to navigate an ever-changing healthcare landscape. 🌎 🩺 However, various issues are contributing to the rapid decline of private practice, typically revolving around financial pressures, physician burnout, and competition from larger health systems. Presently, these challenges are forcing private practices into the hands of private equity or hospital systems. In the article Todd mentions that due to these challenges, "Nearly 60% of all physician practices are now under hospital or corporate ownership." 🏥 Specifically, this decline is more severe in cardiology, "As estimates suggest that only 10k of the US’ 33k cardiologists remain in independent practices." Why Are Cardiology Practices Being Targeted? 1. Patient Population: As the population ages, the demand for cardiology services increase. 2. Fragmented Market: Competition and lack of synergy between physician in an extremely competitive specialty. 3. Opportunity & Potential: High reimbursements, referral generation, and opportunity for other investments (ACS, OBLs, other procedural labs) make cardiology highly attractive. 📈 What Can Be Done? In response to these challenges, CLS Health is making great strides against these issues by expanding our cardiovascular services, most recently by adding a new Electrophysiology (EP) practice. This coming shortly after the acquisition of Southeast Houston Cardiology and Clear Lake Cardiovascular Consultants making cardiology one of our largest service lines. With over 25+ providers in cardiology now, we plan to ensure our patients have access to comprehensive specialized care under one roof. As we strategically grow throughout the Houston area, we ensure to help physicians maintain their autonomy, build synergy between our physicians, and supply them with outstanding operational support. #healthcare #cardiology #privatepractice

In the not too distant past, the vast majority of cardiologists worked their entire careers in private practice, but a range of economic and administrative changes have driven around 70% of US cardiologists into hospital and corporate employment. In the latest issue, we’re diving into cardiology’s employment shift, and what the future holds for private practice cardiologists. https://lnkd.in/eJscKCPS

The most important drivers of imaging overuse by radiologists & ED clinicians are: -defensive medicine & fear of malpractice -presence of less experienced staff -easy access to imaging -patient pressure on emergency physicians, -lack of time to examine patients to contribute to over-imaging -pressure from consultants to perform imaging. -using imaging to decrease turnaround time in the emergency department. -a lack of space in the emergency department. -a lack of proper medical education. -inability to access outside imaging studies. https://lnkd.in/e3859yzG

Undergoing transplant surgery and being labeled an ICU survivor not only marked the beginning of my personal health journey but also transformed my practices as a doctor. What exactly are the important things that I’ve learned over the last few years? - Clear communication between clinicians and patients is crucial. Conveying medical information clearly and validate their experiences. Acknowledging a patient's emotional and psychological needs can enhance their trust (and comfort!) in the healthcare system. - I emphasize the importance of holistic care, and that can be different for every single patient. Having been on the receiving end of medical services, I’ve learned to appreciate the balance between addressing the immediate medical needs and considering the broader impact on a patient’s well-being. Not every person wants every intervention or medication available, and that’s okay. 👍 - There’s an invaluable role of support groups when we are healing. There’s strength found in shared experiences that I didn’t fully understand prior to my transplant. I advocate for patients connecting with other patients— there should be a focus on the power of community + empathy in recovery. ❤️🩹 My personal experiences have refined my medical practice and have given me a different understanding of patient care, and I love sharing this with my fellow healthcare workers. Thanks for all of your support! #patientadvocacy #physician #transplant #medicine
