Learning Objectives

The Complete Course for Medical Staff Leaders Credentialing, privileging, peer review, managing issues of behavior and health…and that’s just the beginning! Yet, none of this is taught in medical school or residency. There’s too much at stake to learn on the job. It was recently discovered that the DUI an applicant revealed on his application was actually two DUIs along with felony charges for hit-and-run (property damage) and resisting arrest. You have been asked to weigh in on next steps. Maybe the Credentials Committee should ask the applicant to come in for an interview and see what he has to say about the discrepancy? Is that the best way to get to the bottom of things and, at the same time, ensure the applicant is being given a fair chance to tell his side of the story? A relatively new addition to the Medical Staff has been rubbing people the wrong way. What may have, at first, seemed like a prickly personality has spiraled into several complaints about behaviors that violate Hospital or Medical Staff policy. You have been asked to handle it. Sitting down to discuss the problem might be best, but might be awkward or confrontational. Can you just send an email? What choices do you have? In physician leadership, the stakes are high. Good Bylaws and policies can provide some of the solutions you need – and the tools to implement them. But many leadership activities require leadership knowledge, finesse, and experience. None of this is taught in medical school or residency. That’s why you need access to initial and ongoing leadership training that has been designed specifically with Medical Staff leaders in mind. At the Complete Course, seminar faculty LeeAnne Mitchell, Rachel Remaley, and Hala Mouzaffar will use case studies and other engaging scenarios, based on their combined 45+ years of experience providing legal and consulting services to physician leaders, to help Medical Staff leaders hone the strategies and tools necessary to tackle the toughest credentialing, privileging, peer review, and related leadership challenges.
