Welcome back to Medical Money Matters. I’m Jill Arena, and I’m so glad you’re here with me for this very special edition of the podcast. Today, I’m beyond excited to introduce something that’s been in the works for over three and a half years—a course that I truly believe can transform the way physicians engage with the business side of medicine.

This is Physician’s Edge: Mastering Business and Finance in Your Medical Practice. It’s an online, on-demand course designed to give you the practical business and financial training that you never received in medical school. And it’s something I created in response to a need I’ve seen over and over again for decades—and more recently, in response to direct requests from many of the graduates of the Physician Leadership Project. They’ve been asking me, “Where can I go to really dig into finance and business at a level that’s relevant to physicians?” And until today, I haven’t had a good answer. But now, I do.

So if you're wondering how this all came to be—why I felt so compelled to put in the time, the resources, and the effort to build something like this—it all goes back to the very first episode of this podcast. In that episode, I shared a hard truth: our medical education system has done an incredible job of training clinicians to be excellent doctors. But it has completely failed to train you for the realities of business. And in today’s healthcare environment, that knowledge is no longer optional. It’s essential.

Medical schools teach you to be the knower of all things. The one with the answers. And that’s exactly what our patients need in the exam room or the OR. But in the world of business, it’s a very different game. Out here, it’s perfectly acceptable—even encouraged—to say, “I don’t know, but I’ll find out.” Unfortunately, that kind of curiosity is often stifled in your training. And that stifling can have real consequences when you're running or participating in a multi-million-dollar practice without the background to support it.
