Physicians Working For Insurance Companies. Obtain authorizations from insurance companies/physician offices. For most people, it makes sense that you work for whoever pays you.
First of all, patients don’t. Corporate jobs for physicians working at a health insurance company typically are 40ish hour per week propositions. Under health care reform, physicians and other care providers working with these payers assume financial risk for the quality and cost of care, either as part of an accountable care organization (aco), or beginning in 2019, in alternative payment models.
