In a sector where women make up the majority of the workforce, why are women still under-represented in the seats of power in medical groups?

That’s the question we’re digging into today. Because while it’s no secret that healthcare has long depended on the contributions of women—as physicians, nurses, administrators, and operational leaders—the top roles still tend to skew male. And when you take a close look at medical groups, especially larger ones, the imbalance becomes even clearer.

But this isn’t just a fairness issue. This is a strategic issue. Promoting more women into leadership roles is one of the smartest things a medical group can do. It strengthens decision-making, improves communication, builds healthier teams, and creates a culture of resilience. Today, we’ll explore why.

We’re going to cover a lot of ground: the traditional gender imbalance, the advantages of gender-diverse leadership, how men and women often lead differently, how those styles complement each other, why compensation and negotiation matter, and how remote work might help level the playing field. We'll also touch on what the future could look like if medical groups commit to equity—not just in theory, but in practice.

If you’re running a medical practice in 2025, chances are—without even realizing it—you’re leaving real money on the table. And I don’t mean pennies—I mean tens or even hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars a year.

Here’s the thing: most practices aren’t bleeding cash from one major hole. They’re leaking it quietly, invisibly, in ways that seem small until they snowball. A missed code here. A denied claim that never got appealed. A payer contract that hasn’t been touched in five years. And the result? Margins shrink. Stress rises. And groups that should be financially strong start treading water. There’s no hemorrhage. Instead, it’s death by a thousand paper cuts.

The good news is that these problems are almost always fixable. But first, you have to see them. So today, we’re going to walk through five of the most common ways medical groups lose money unnecessarily—and, just as importantly, what you can do about each one.

If you recognize yourself in any of these, know this: you’re not alone. These are common, especially in busy practices where the day-to-day crises take priority. But the practices that tighten these up are the ones that thrive—no matter what the market throws at them.

We’re kicking off Season 4 of the Medical Money Matters Podcast, and we’re celebrating something big. Over 10,000 downloads. Listeners tuning in from nearly 1,000 cities across the country—and even internationally. And we’re entering our fourth year of episodes. Honestly, that number still stuns me a little. When we launched this podcast, our goal was simple: to help physicians and practice leaders navigate the business of medicine without losing sight of why they went into medicine in the first place.

We wanted to demystify the money side. To have honest, clear conversations about things like revenue cycle, financial strategy, payer policies, and practice independence. We believed then—and we still do now—that when doctors understand the financial side of their practice, they’re better equipped to lead, grow, and stay independent.

And we’re just getting started.
