Bloomberg.com: Health Care

Just mention "physician ranking" and I get shivers down my spine. That may sound reactionary in this era of transparency and metrics, but seeing how medicine works on the inside, I can only say that evaluating the quality of a doctor is no facile task - and it is certainly more complex that any insurance company will admit. Image having a lawyer ranking system. The bottom line is: who's doing the ranking and what model are they using?
