The Coming Shortage of Surgeons

Why They Are Disappearing and What That Means for Our Health

By: Thomas E. Williams Jr., M.D., Ph.D.,E. Christopher Ellison M.D.,Bhagwan Satiani M.D., M.B.A.

A critical, quantitative look at the future supply and demand of surgical specialists that may foretell rationing of surgical services. The Coming Shortage of Surgeons: Why They Are Disappearing and What That Means for Our Health is the only quantitative analysis of the workforce in orthopedic and thoracic surgery, otolaryngology, obstetrics and gynecology, general surgery, neurosurgery, and urology. It analyzes the demand and supply for these surgeons and gives the causes and remedies for these shortages. The Coming Shortage of Surgeons quantifies the demand for the surgical workforce, then examines the constraints to supply, which include soaring tuition and medical students' debts, the demand for a controllable or scheduled lifestyle, malpractice premium expenses, early retirement, and perhaps the most difficult hurdle to overcome: the provision in the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 that caps all medical and surgical residencies at 1996 levels.

Consumer Driven Health Care

By: Roger D. Blackwell,Thomas E. Williams,Alan Ayers

The United States does not have a health care system; it has a sickness care system and now the system itself is sick. The costs of health care drain nearly 15% of all the goods and services produced in America, 50% more than other industrialized nations. With benefits costs approaching $10,000 per employee with family coverage and increasing at double-digit rates, this crisis is not only threatening American jobs, but the ability of U.S. companies to survive in the global marketplace. Consumer Driven Health Care is informative and entertaining reading for executives who want to know more about reducing the high costs of health care, consumers unhappy with the growing proportion of their paychecks going to health insurance premiums and co-pays on physician visits and prescription drugs, and health care providers and policy makers looking for a detailed, easy-to-understand explanation of ""America’s Two Trillion Dollar Crisis.
