Strategic planning for the complexity of physician alignment

Your medical staff has become increasingly complex to build and to manage. It may seem with so many types of relationships that crafting an overall framework is next to impossible. With some tools to analyze the current staff and culture, and to map out future needs, your organization can take the steps to building a flexible, efficient medical staff model that allows hospitals and their physicians to work toward common goals.

Learn from HealthLeaders Media and William K. Cors and Steven Lewis the strategies that will help you understand your current medical staff structure and take steps necessary to create a framework that adapts. Our speakers show you how to:

  • Discover flexible models that will grow into the future
  • Share tools to assess your medical staff culture
  • Understand what your community really needs from your physicians
  • Anticipate challenges
  • Get board-level involvement

Pressures are coming from physicians, from payers but most of all from the physicians themselves to craft a flexible medical staff model that works in the modern healthcare economy. Our physician experts walk through the first steps in the journey.
