Overview

Mission

Physicians serving physicians was formed in 1981 by a group of physicians in recovery to help other physicians and their families with substance use disorders. We have supported over 1,000 physicians through their recovery to return to successful practice.

What it reported doing in 2024

Physicians serving physicians (psp) continued to provide substance abuse disorder support through monthly support meetings and the physicians wellness collaborative (pwc) grew our wellbeing services through individual and group sessions for physicians, residents, medical students, and new in 2021 advanced practice providers and their families in Minnesota. In 2024, more than 40 physicians benefitted from the services of physicians serving physicians and the physicians wellness collaborative: over 30 physicians from across the state regularly attend and engage in monthly psp meetings where they find support and community from fellow physicians living with substance use disorders. Our 24/7 counseling services as well as our resident and fellow proactive wellness appointments were discontinued due to lack of funding. We were proud to promote our advocacy efforts from 2022 where we worked with several stakeholders to remove a longstanding barrier in Minnesota's licensure renewal process. Namely, physicians are no longer required to report mental health conditions that are being appropriately treated when they apply for or renew their medical licenses. This requirement deterred many phyisicians from seeking needed treatment for menthal health and substance use disorders. Despite the change in 2022, continued efforts were needed to spread awareness of the policy change.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 85% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
