Controversy
In late 2019, the physician group, University Pediatrics announced that they were separating from the Wayne State University School of Medicine and instead joining the Central Michigan University.[10] In retaliation, Wayne State announced that they were creating their own physician group, Wayne Pediatrics and gave doctors who taught medicine at the university 30 days to switch over their affiliation to Wayne Pediatrics or lose their teaching privileges.[11] The group University Pediatrics has had an exclusive contract with the Detroit Medical Center and DMC's owner, Tenet Healthcare decided that doctors from Wayne Pediatrics would lose their affiliation with the hospital and doctors with Wayne Pediatrics would not be able to treat or admit patients at the hospital.Шаблон:Cn In April, 2020 Wayne State officials announced that they were taking up legal action against Tenet Healthcare.[12][13] The judge later sided with Tenet' ability to control what physicians practice at their hospitals, and subsequent appeals by Wayne State failed. In November 2020, DMC C.E.O. sent out letters to Wayne State pediatricians informing them that they no longer had admitting privileges at the Children's Hospital of Michigan, but these pediatricians would be allowed to practice at DMC's adult hospitals.[14]
