Episode 165: How the One Big Beautiful Bill Act Affects Physicians

In this timely episode, Dr. Elisa Chiang breaks down the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed into law on July 4, 2025, and what it means for physicians. With over 800 pages of legislation, this sweeping law has far-reaching implications for taxes, healthcare funding, student loans, and energy incentives. Dr. Chiang highlights the key takeaways—both positive and negative—for physicians, medical students, practice owners, and anyone working in healthcare.

• The new caps on federal student loans and how they may worsen the physician shortage
