ANESTHESIOLOGY BACK IN THE TOP 20
"Similarly, anesthesiology was absent from Merritt Hawkins’ top 20 recruiting assignments since 2010, but returned to the list in the 2017 Review. Demand for anesthesiology was suppressed in part by the recession, which had a particularly inhibiting effect on elective procedures.
Demand also may have been limited by the ongoing effort to redirect healthcare away from a volume-based model toward a value-based model in which prevention and resource utilization are emphasized and the number of procedures requiring anesthesia is thereby reduced. Nevertheless, demand for procedures (elective and non-elective) driven by an improving economy and patient aging continues to be strong, creating more openings for anesthesiologists, particularly with large single specialty groups and academic medical centers."
