Given the
time-intensiveness of medicine, it’s no surprise that
overworked physicians focus more on patient care than organizational
goals. But without the attention and support of the
physicians—whether they are employees or part of your
organization’s network—many organizational
initiatives are likely to fail. Most healthcare organizations report
that one of the biggest challenges their organization faces when
adopting new programs is the resistance of doctors to these changes.
Reaching
Reluctant Physicians: Forging Organizational Trust and Collaboration
provides physician engagement strategies ranging from democratic and
open forums to workshops, new technology, pay for performance (PFP) and
incentive programs. This 31-page special report explores means to
accomplish change and offers insider tips for achieving the ultimate
goal: physician buy-in for program success.
In this report, two
physician facilitators provide an inside look at the physician culture
and suggest ways to create trust and alignment between management and
physicians.
These strategies are
provided by Dr. Joseph Bujak, vice president of
medical affairs at Kootenai Medical Center, and Dr. Scott J.
Cullen, consultant for Accenture Health and Life Sciences.
