Doctors With Histories of Big Malpractice Settlements Now Work for Insurers (www.propublica.org)

Doctors working for health insurers can rule on 10,000 or more requests for care a year. At least a dozen were hired by major insurance companies after being disciplined by state medical boards or making multiple or outsized malpractice payments.

It really does though. Medicine is far too siloed and far more specialized now days than most people realize. This makes it nearly impossible for someone to really be able to determine medical necessity outside of their specialty. I would never trust a surgeon on endocrine issues or an emergency physician on primary care. The skill set and knowledge is just so wildly different.

There is a reason physicians are trying to get laws passed that would require peer to peers be conducted by people in the same specialty.

Which is frankly terrifying. ER docs are only required to do 10 deliveries during residency, which are often as glorified observers. I did nearly 100 deliveries in my rural unopposed FM residency and that was no where near enough to feel comfortable making it a part of my practice.

So, yes, they are going to set records.

They are cutting some truly useful majors here. Women's, critical race, and social justice studies are all fantastic foundations for social work and HR. HIT and health communications are very in demand and are only going to increase as our population ages. Really though, none of these are really truly useless. I'm in medicine and the best doctors and nurses are those that have non traditional backgrounds, those that did social sciences in undergrad on top of their prereqs all seem to have an easier time with the critical thinking required by the job. Florida is really intentionally destroying an entire generation's future.
