Interesting - it would have to be a union of all employed (W2) physicians, not just by specialty. I would use the example of a nurse's union Should I Join A Nurses Union? Pros And Cons
For pathologists - unless employed by a medical center/hospital I don't think it's relevant. The decrease in pathologist reimbursement is due to many factors - I don't think a union will help.

Clay Cockerell? Glad he care so much about patients being harmed....Did the reimbursement cuts force him to engage in this?

Cockerell Dermatopathology To Pay $3.75 Million to Resolve Healthcare Fraud Claims
A Texas dermatopathology clinic has agreed to pay the United States more than $3.7 million to resolve allegations that it violated the False Claims Act by submitting fraudulent lab claims to TRICARE and by knowingly concealing an obligation to repay the United States.
MDs can’t unionize OR strike - y’all know that right
Great to hear. I’m sure having that massive fraud lawsuit out of the way really opened up his schedule.

He's now MD, MBA, JD...
Cockerell is a dermatologist who cosplays as a pathologist. Defrauding vererans might even be a legitimate business model in dermatology. Let them own the sleazebag, we have plenty in the ranks of CAP already.
