We're excited to share news about a new group within MAP - Chicago Anesthesia Locums! Formed at the start of this year, the group was created in response to hospitals' focus on employment of physicians and our desire to maintain our independence and relationships with surgery centers while still providing the top-notch patient care.

“The anesthesia market is changing at a rapid pace and we’re adjusting our offerings right along with it,” said Dr. Matt Henry, cardiothoracic anesthesiologist and president of Chicago Anesthesia Locums. “We are facing a nationwide shortage of anesthesiologists, coupled with decreasing Medicare reimbursements and increasing demand for control over physicians from hospital boards and corporate owners. This progressive model moves us away from traditional long-term hospital contracts and toward better work-life balance options available through ASC work, allowing us to meet the needs of our group physicians while still being able to provide quality care for patients.”
