A lawyer’s essential checklist for physician side hustles [PODCAST]

KevinMD's publication of a podcast discussing physician side hustles, specifically highlighting licensed attorney Anu Murthy's article "A lawyer’s guide to physician side gigs", marks a significant shift in the medical community's approach to alternative income streams. This development means that website owners, particularly those in the healthcare and medical niches, should be prepared to accommodate the growing number of physicians exploring side gigs and passion projects. As physicians turn to online platforms to promote their side hustles, website owners can expect an increase in AI bot traffic related to medical and health-related content. This may include bots scraping information on telehealth services, medical writing, or other healthcare-related topics. To manage this influx of AI bot traffic, website owners can take the following actionable steps: (1) regularly update their llms.txt files to include specific rules for medical and healthcare-related bots, (2) implement robust content protection measures to prevent scraping and unauthorized use of their content, and (3) monitor their website analytics to identify and adapt to emerging trends in physician side hustles and AI bot traffic.
