This deep dive will explore the growing trend of physician unionization – providing participants with a firm understanding of the underlying causes, legal and ethical considerations, and predictive tools that can help identify if your organization is at risk.
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:

-
Explore the legal and ethical considerations surrounding physician unions
-
