A large number of hospitals and health care systems have embarked on ambitious plans to build an employed physician network—some to resolve long-standing issues related to the independent medical staff, others in anticipation of forming accountable care organizations (ACOs). Adding employed physicians raises a host of potential practical and legal issues. How can a hospital ensure success? In this one-hour webinar for senior HR professionals, senior leaders, and CMO/VPMAs, attendees will learn How to understand the potential conflicts between the employed physician model and the traditional medical staff; The potential and evolving legal issues related to physician employment agreements, benefits, employee rights and record keeping; and How to understand key operational/relationship issues related to ensuring the success of the employed physician model, including recruiting, selection, and ongoing physician-hospital alignment.
