Dr. Katie Min was 36 when she took over her father’s primary care practice in the Queen’s Physicians Office Building in Honolulu’s Punchbowl neighborhood in 2022. Min’s father had taken the practice over from his father, who had started it in the 1940s.
Now after three generations, Min says the multigenerational practice is facing an existential financial threat after the state’s largest insurer gave her 60 days’ notice that it was radically changing its reimbursement model for primary care doctors.
