The growth of the administrative class over the past 30 years has been a disaster for education & health care. These administrators mostly just contribute to overhead costs, causing their industries to become more costly and less efficient. So why did this happen? In both

Medicare is not one program. It has multiple parts and each one is financed differently. Part A, hospital care, is funded primarily by payroll taxes. Part B, doctors and outpatient care, is funded roughly 25% by premiums and about 75% by general taxpayer revenue. Part D

ā€œBut we paid in.ā€ No, you didn’t. And that’s the problem. Medicare gives seniors benefits that far exceed what they paid for in payroll taxes. Payroll taxes only cover hospital visits, not doctors’ visits or drugs. The rest comes from federal borrowing, adding $9.5 trillion

If I want healthcare to be different, I have to practice differently. Today at Redbud we did multiple cases in an environment built around patients, not profit margins. We had time. We had focus. We had the right team in the right setting. One patient came to us after receiving

Hospitals and health systems have been operating with a broken business model for decades. It’s time for a moral reckoning on the subject.

Comprehensive immigration reform legislation is needed now and would also provide for the nursing home aides and home health care aides who are needed for good patient care.

Universities are still policing AI like it's a plagiarism problem. Meanwhile, the gap is widening. The researchers who figure out AI isn't for writing papers, know it's for accelerating research, filling knowledge gaps, handling the grunt work that blocks breakthrough thinking.

Physician consolidation isn’t some isolated trend or voluntary lifestyle shift. The data shows it’s the downstream consequence of consolidation that happened first among insurers, then among hospitals. Insurers consolidated first AMA’s Competition in Health Insurance reports
