“Our doctors are lazy.”
That’s what I heard during a recent engagement.
“They’ll take the path of least resistance. They’re just lazy.”
No, they’re not.
They’re practicing in a system which doesn’t reward their work, their effort, their art.
It’s a system that rewards the administrator’s work, the organization’s work—but not theirs.
Is it any wonder they’ve checked out?
Is it any wonder that young clinicians are literally killing themselves, having been sold the “pig-in-a poke” that is now clinical practice?
If you’re trying to improve the performance of your Medicare Advantage system, remember:
It’s not them—it’s you.
They’re practicing in a system you created, that you’re responsible for.
Set your docs up in a system that rewards them for doing what they trained to do, what they dreamed of doing, what they were born to do.
Create a system that gives them real skin in the game—not a gain-share.
Harness yourself to their dreams.
Unleash their power.
You’ll look like a genius.
