There is a ratings system for every specialty practice in the US and by rights all those evaluations should be publicly available. I have a friend retired from heading both nukes and radiology who still travels to evaluate both of those specialties. She’s a rare bird allopathically trained that got out of the practice of medicine because, first, managed care added one layer of suits between her and her patients and then ACA added yet another. Now when a hospital wants to issue debt they reference these stats. Yes, this evaluation system presupposes more power for “the experts” but it’s information and it should be publicly available! I do know this. I have many friends who are or were physicians but my last experience with the ER got me incarcerated in an ICU room. Yes, they locked me in like I was a psych patient because I was unjabbed and was diagnosed with COVID pneumonia.
