Dear health care administrator,
I am writing to you in a spirit of cooperation, because the way health care works today, it is too complex a business to manage on the side while also taking care of patients. And I hope you don’t have any illusions about medicine being so simple that non-physicians like yourself can manage patients’ health care without trained professionals who understand medical science and can adapt the science and “guidelines” of medicine to individual patients with multiple interwoven problems with disease presentations that seldom match their textbook descriptions.
We need each other, at least under the current system. So I ask you to view us as allies, because we actually do the work that ultimately pays your wage or your profit, and is the basis for your own performance metrics. We are in this together, like it or not, so let me ask that you don’t do some of the things that several of your colleagues are doing:
Don’t squeeze us too hard.
Your patients are rating you online: How to respond. Manage your online reputation: A social media guide. Find out how.
