Anyone who leads or manages knows that one of the most difficult barriers for departments and organizations to overcome is coordinating people in different professions and specialties. Within organizations people tend to work and think in their own silos e.g., departments, professional specialties, etc.

A special brand of leader is required to build that cross-silo connectivity. We call those leaders “meta-leaders,” leaders who integrate the work of the many different people and areas of expertise necessary to build quality patient care.

This course focuses on how to connect people, resources, information and performance of different professions and specialties. Even with very different agendas, health care providers can present a united front.
 Total quality management, outcomes management, and clinical guidelines are examined along with emerging trends. Techniques for measuring and managing delivery of quality patient care, bringing real-world concepts and experiences to life.

    * How to achieve superior outcomes at the lowest cost.
    * Influencing physicians to commit to and engage in a culture of quality.
    * Patient Safety - sources and remedies for medical error.
    * Would a disease management approach be best for your patients and organization?
    * Attending to the increasing demands of medical consumers.
    * Applying data from patient satisfaction surveys and report cards.
    * Competing on quality.
    * Controlling costs while ensuring quality of care.

Do you struggle with persistent problems? Do you need things to change? This course will provide physician executives with new ways to think, manage and lead. It will allow you a competitive edge as well as a cooperative edge with your colleagues. Participants will use real-world scenarios to expand their own thinking and that of their project teams.

    * Foster visioning and innovation with a team of independent thinkers.
    * Take advantage of organizational mistakes, errors or failure to create solutions.
    * Get the right ideas from the right people with the right results.
    * Use strategic thinking to be a creative leader without being seen as a micromanager.

These days, it isn't enough to be a good doctor. Whether you're working in a group practice or hospital, in insurance or any other health care setting, you also need business know-how and skills if you want your organization and your career to thrive.
