It never ceases to amaze me how spectacularly unprepared residents are for real-world medicine.
Most new doctors are naive to the business side of medicine, as well as the challenges that they will surely face: P4P, “never” events, and malpractice issues.
There’s more to practicing medicine than just knowing medicine.
WhiteCoat suggests reading medical blogs to keep up. I agree.
