>A thought: I wonder if this also mean that large hospitals will have doctors that earn more and somehow correlated with better care in certain cases?

No, usually lower. Especially academic hospitals.

Better care because it's academic which draws the type who want to the best and are willing to forego higher pay for prestige. Also because billing matters a lot less and generally doesn't go into physician pockets at these hospitals so you can see more complexity and spend more time.

>For example, In NYC I have found better care with Beth Israel and NYU Langone for Preventative and Diagnostic Health care than private practices.

Mount Sinai and especially Langone are amongst the best academic hospitals and health systems in the US right now.
