In this, the first of a series of articles dancing around this concept, we will make the case for a different perspective on the issue. Why focus on specialty care? Health Care is 17% of the US GDP and too large of a topic to address effectively as a single business opportunity. The needs of primary care docs and sub-specialty surgical docs
