Medical Economics® Named Regional Winner and National Finalist for 2019 Azbee Awards of Excellence

“Surviving Merger Mania” is a finalist in the feature article —
general interest category

CRANBURY, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Medical Economics^®, a multimedia platform that
provides resources for physicians that include practice management,
health technology and expert voices, announces that its article Surviving
Merger Mania: What Healthcare Consolidation Means for Physicians and
Patients was recently named a Gold Award regional winner for the
American Society of Business Publication Editors’ (ASBPE’s) Azbee Awards
of Excellence in the feature article — general interest category in the
Heartland region.

“Surviving
Merger Mania” looks at how primary care medicine is evolving as a
result of the wave of consolidation sweeping through the health care
industry. Senior editor Jeff Bendix wrote the compelling story on health
care corporate consolidation and its impact on physicians. All aspects
of the $3.4 trillion health care industry have been affected by the
large volume of mergers and acquisition, and this article serves as a
guide through it all.

“Corporate consolidation is one of the trends that most affects the
careers and daily lives of working physicians today,” said Chris
Mazzolini, editorial director of Medical Economics^®.
“This kind of deep, thoughtful and useful analysis of ongoing trends
helps our physician readers understand how the health care landscape is
shifting beneath their feet — and what they can do to prepare and excel.
That is our mission at Medical Economics^®.”

The Azbees honor the best in business-to-business (B2B) media,
recognizing outstanding work by B2B, trade, association and professional
publications. One of the most competitive award programs for trade
media, the Azbees highlight editorial, online and design excellence in
magazines, newsletters and digital media. In 2019, more than 1,000
nominations were judged by a ream of B2B editors, writers and designers.
The Overall Excellence winners will be announced at the National Azbee
Awards of Excellence banquet, held in conjunction with GenerationB2B,
the 2019 ASBPE National Conference at the Poynter Institute in St.
