The Corporate Practice of Medicine (CPoM) Doctrine was first conceptualized before insurance or CMS were created. Thus, the doctrine, which states that physicians should not be employed by lay-interests, to avoid influence over the physician-patient relationship need be revisited in the context of an increasingly draconian and financialized payment system, including prior authorization, and Medicare Advantage. David Dayen, Executive Director of The American Prospect, and author of "Monopolized: Life in the Age of Corporate Power" hosts this exclusive bonus plenary session on how the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) essentially became captured by corporate interests. You can learn more about David's reporting on CMS at "Patient Zero" on the American Prospect.
