The Business of Anesthesia: Thriving in a Shifting Anesthesia Landscape

Sunday, November 29, 2026
7:00 am - 12:00 pm

In today’s rapidly evolving anesthesia landscape, understanding the business side of practice is more critical than ever. This workshop explores the current market dynamics of anesthesia, including the impact of workforce shortages and rising demand. Through real-world examples and interactive discussion, participants will gain insight into income generation through billing and subsidies, and how these factors shape the future of the profession. Topics include business entity selection, 1099 vs W2 employment models, liability insurance, contract negotiation strategies, and interpreting explanation of benefits (EOBs). This session offers a comprehensive overview of the anesthesia business environment and equips providers with the knowledge to navigate and thrive in it.
