The Doctor Shortage and Market-Based Solutions

General1 credit hourTDI course #121410

About this course

Consumers are increasingly frustrated by narrow networks, disappearing out-of-network benefits, and the growing difficulty of finding plans that include their preferred doctors. At the same time, the U.S. is facing a significant physician shortage that is expected to worsen over the next several years. These two trends are reshaping how coverage is accessed and how brokers must guide their clients. This course explains the forces behind the provider shortage, why networks have tightened in the individual market, and the practical, market-based solutions available today—from alternative plan designs to new care delivery models—that can help clients maintain access to quality care while managing premium costs.
