Editor’s Note

Dear readers,

This week’s Medical Staff Leader Insider features an article about a new online tool that will allow patients to compare surgeons based on death and complication rates. While patients may appreciate the opportunity to learn more about their surgeons before an operation, how do you feel about it? Are there other factors that could influence a surgeon’s score? Will this encourage surgeons to avoid high-risk patients? Let me know.

Thanks for reading!
