Mr. Mira first points to Will Latham’s article “Strengthening Your Anesthesiology Group,” where he proposes two steps groups can take to reduce environmental uncertainty, strengthen group governance and, with a more predictable decision-making process in place, develop a group-endorsed strategic plan.
Jody Locke’s article “Timing is Everything: Divining the Wisdom of Anesthesia Aggregation in the Current Environment,” describes an example of anesthesia practices that have merged to create an important new player in the region, implementing a highly strategic long-range plan, according to Mr. Mira.
The third article Mr. Mira discusses is “Creating a Clinical Database: Opening Pandora’s Box or Mining the Treasure Trove,” where Aman Mahajan, MD, and Jody Locke take a new look at the role of databases in creating power and influence in groups’ relationships with hospitals.
