Abstract

There is a dire need in this country for a new insurance product for protection of physicians from sham peer review. Sham peer review, whistleblowing, retaliation, lack of due process, and hospital immunity are all intertwined in this potentially careerthreatening issue which also has constitutional implications. Our group has extensively published on this topic in the fields of medicine and healthcare [1-14]. Yet the time has come to share our findings and conclusions with the broader public including public health professionals, politicians and legislators, professionals of the law and justice system, and insurance companies in order to better protect physicians
