About this episode
We’re back once again for our annual conversation with NorthStar Anesthesia CEO Adam Spiegel and Chief Anesthetist Officer/Executive Vice President of Clinical Strategy Randy Moore, DNP, MBA, CRNA to provide us with a state of the profession as we begin 2026. They’re here to help us make sense of the ever-evolving anesthesia ecosystem by explaining what’s going on in our space right now and telling us where they think we’re headed.
Here’s some of what you’ll hear in this episode:
- Current state situation in the anesthesia business sector
- Status of CRNA supply shortage and its impact on the labor market
- What’s going on with private equity supported firms?
- Current state of hospital and outsourced anesthesia firms relationships
- What’s going on with hospitals today?
