Healthcare Econ 101 - Ep. 2: Show Me the Money (RVUs & DRGs)

Ever wonder why a complex gallbladder surgery only nets the surgeon about $350, while the hospital collects thousands? In this episode, Dr. Christopher Childers and Dr. Nina Clark pull back the curtain on how the money actually flows in medicine. From the birth of the RVU to the "Two Midnight Rule," we’re breaking down the math behind your paycheck.

Next Step: Ready to make sure you're actually getting credit for the work you do? Join us for Episode 3, where we dive into the "Black Box" of Coding and Billing.
