WSMA Reports: March-April 2025
Crushed by Rising Costs
In this latest issue of WSMA Reports, writer John Gallagher talks with physician leaders and policymakers about the rising costs of providing care and possible paths forward.
Elsewhere, we talked with new Washington state Gov. Bob Ferguson in January and asked him to share his health care priorities as he enters his first term in office.
For our hospital-employed members: Please review the important feature from Physicians Insurance on the rise of contribution claims and how to protect yourself from this liability.
Elsewhere in the magazine:
- “Who Will Deliver for Washington’s Mothers and Children?” an opinion piece by Vivienne Meljen, MD, and Judy Kimelman, MD.
- Member Spotlight on Katherine Jong, MD.
- Doctors Making a Difference: Amy Ellingson, MD.
- And much more.
