Ever feel like you’re fluent in medical jargon but totally illiterate when it comes to the business side of surgery? You’re not alone. In this series premiere, Dr. Christopher Childers (Surgical Oncologist and health policy expert) joins Dr. Nina Clark to demystify the "second world" of medicine: healthcare finance. We’re breaking down the basic vocabulary every surgeon needs to advocate for themselves and their patients.

Next Step: Ready to see how this translates to your paycheck? In Episode 2, we dive into Physician and Hospital Compensation, RVUs, and the flow of funds.
