Director
The Washington Advisory Group, an LECG Company
Mitchell T. Rabkin, M.D., advises on systems issues in health care delivery, and strategy, governance, and management of academic medical enterprises.
Dr. Rabkin led Boston’s Beth Israel Hospital for three decades. In 1996, Beth Israel and Deaconess Hospitals merged and formed the nucleus of the second major delivery system in the area, CareGroup.

He is past Chair of the Conference of Boston Teaching Hospitals, and both the Association of American Medical Colleges and its Council of Teaching Hospitals.
