Physicians who accept or are assigned leadership positions are too often left on their own to develop leadership skills and educate themselves on their responsibilities as medical staff leaders. These physicians may be great clinicians and enthusiastic about taking a leadership position, but neither of these characteristics automatically makes a great leader. Get practical answers for physicians in leadership. The Medical Staff Leaders' Practical Guide, Sixth Edition provides direction for physician leaders in hospitals--those who remain primarily clinicians, but who also accept positions of leadership in the hospital or medical staff organization. It gives an overview of physician leaders' roles and responsibilities in credentialing, privileging, bylaws development, performance improvement, physician management, and board/physician relations. Completely revamped and updated, this essential resource for medical staff leaders includes: - Tools and information needed to fulfill leadership responsibilities for all medical staff leaders, including directors of medical staff offices, vice presidents of medical affairs, medical staff presidents, credentials committee chairs and members, and committee and department chairs - Expanded analysis and strategies for overcoming current medical staff leadership challenges, including merger issues, medical staff development plans, physician practice evaluations, assessing and improving clinical competence, and more - Guidance and how-to advice on creating a positive medical staff culture, minimizing distrust or conflict, and improving policies - Tips and insights from experienced medical staff leaders currently working in hospitals How do you keep up with evolving roles? As relationships continue to evolve between hospitals and medical staff, it is especially important for physician leaders to be well-educated about credentialing, privileging, conflicts of interest, medical staff organization, the roles of various physician leaders and committees, performance improvement, and more. This practical guide includes in-depth reviews of the top five medical staff leadership responsibilities: - Medical staff structure and governance - Credentialing and privileging - Peer review and performance improvement - Hospital-medical staff collaboration - Medical staff culture Rise to the challenge of leadership! Written by experienced medical staff leaders currently working in hospitals, The Medical Staff Leaders' Practical Guide, Sixth Edition, gives physicians the tools they need to meet the challenges of a leadership role.

Cors, MD, MMM, FACPE An affordable, time-sensitive solution to medical staff leadership training. Physicians who accept or are assigned leadership positions are often left on their own to develop leadership skills and educate themselves about their responsibilities as medical staff leaders. Just because a physician is a great clinician does not mean he or she is a great leader. The challenges of being a successful medical staff leader are twofold: You must be well-versed in your role and responsibilities (i.e., peer review, credentialing, medical staff bylaws), and you must inspire other medical staff members to follow the rules while continuing to deliver excellent patient care. A well-trained medical staff leader is vital to the culture of a hospital''s medical staff and can save a hospital from the expense of lawsuits affiliated with negligent credentialing/peer review. This book aims to teach physicians how to become great medical staff leaders and how to motivate other medical staff members on topics such as: AHP credentialing and supervision Reappointment challenges Physician-hospital competition Liability risks Medical staff disharmony and distrust Table of Contents Chapter 1: Where to Begin?

Download or read book Conflict of Interest in Medical Research Education and Practice written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-09-16 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collaborations of physicians and researchers with industry can provide valuable benefits to society, particularly in the translation of basic scientific discoveries to new therapies and products. Recent reports and news stories have, however, documented disturbing examples of relationships and practices that put at risk the integrity of medical research, the objectivity of professional education, the quality of patient care, the soundness of clinical practice guidelines, and the public's trust in medicine. Conflict of Interest in Medical Research, Education, and Practice provides a comprehensive look at conflict of interest in medicine. It offers principles to inform the design of policies to identify, limit, and manage conflicts of interest without damaging constructive collaboration with industry. It calls for both short-term actions and long-term commitments by institutions and individuals, including leaders of academic medical centers, professional societies, patient advocacy groups, government agencies, and drug, device, and pharmaceutical companies. Failure of the medical community to take convincing action on conflicts of interest invites additional legislative or regulatory measures that may be overly broad or unduly burdensome. Conflict of Interest in Medical Research, Education, and Practice makes several recommendations for strengthening conflict of interest policies and curbing relationships that create risks with little benefit. The book will serve as an invaluable resource for individuals and organizations committed to high ethical standards in all realms of medicine.
