Hold the Date: Anesthesia Exclusive Contracts and Stipends Presentation

I'll be sharing more than four decades of exclusive contract and stipend negotiation knowledge at the upcoming ASA Advance 2024.

What You Must Know About Hospital and Payor Contracting

To be successful in stressed economic times, anesthesia group leaders need to have a solid understanding of hospital and payor contracting. Unfortunately, they’re rarely provided the tools to be successful. This panel presentation, What You Must Know About Hospital and Payor Contracting, aims to correct that. This introductory experience will provide a foundation, as well as some essential tips and tricks, for negotiating with both hospitals and payors.


Negotiating Hospital Contracts Workshop.

Immediately after the panel presentation, I'll conduct an interactive workshop focusing on hospital exclusive contracts and stipend support.

Anesthesia and other physician group leaders often approach hospital contracting as if the process were simply standalone, across-the-table negotiation of the sort discussed in popular books and YouTube. Nothing could be further from the truth especially in times of increasing staffing costs and decreasing collections.

This workshop, incorporating an avatar negotiation/contract, is a deep dive into the deal points, mindset, strategies, and actionable tactics required to maximize contract terms, maximize stipend support, and minimize the toll on your future. 


When: January 26 – 28, 2024
Where: ASA Advance 2024, Las Vegas, NV

We all hear, and most of us say, that the pace of change in healthcare is quickening. That means that the pace of required decision-making is increasing, too. Unless, that is, you want to take the “default” route. That’s the one is which you let someone else make the decisions that impact you; you’re just along for the ride. Of course, playing a bit part in scripting your own future isn’t the smart route to stardom. But despite your own best intentions, perhaps it’s your medical group’s governance structure that’s holding you back.
In fact, it’s very likely that the problem is systemic. The Medical Group Governance Matrix introduces a simple four-quadrant diagnostic tool to help you find out. It then shows you how to use that tool to build your better, more profitable future. Get your free copy Free.
