In retrospect, this guy is practically the prototype of villain in healthcare. He's Eric Lander levels of villainy.

He shouldn't be considered a credible voice just out of corruption. There are many doctors who can write.

Consider his role at Partners (now "Mass General Brigham"): overseeing the growth of a notoriously money grubbing institution, run anticompetitively, despite the excellence of its providers. He has parlayed... saucy New Yorker writing into becoming the very hospital administrator who is responsible for all the fuckups he shits on.

Trust me, if he has something to say about, I don't know, fucking childbirth, it has been known to everyone for years. The difference is his presence in The Magazine New Yorkers Care About lets him omit anything shitty to say about himself and his Partners.

Citation?

With all due respect your post sounds a little like a conspiracy theory without a set of good sources. Is condemning someone for being evil even an intellectual position that invalidates a technical statement they're making?
