The Medical Staff Leader's Survival Guide by William K. Cors Pdf

The Medical Staff Leader''s Survival Guide William K. 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? Principles of Governance Chapter 2: Meetings: The Cost of Holding a Meeting Chapter 3: Meetings: How to Run an Effective Meeting Chapter 4: Overcoming Physician Apathy Chapter 5: Job Descriptions: Medical Staff Leaders Chapter 6: The VPMA/CMO: Where This Fits Chapter 7: Credentialing and Privileging: Requirements, Guidelines and Tips Chapter 8: New Technology Privileges Chapter 9: Privileging Disputes and How to Resolve Them Chapter 10: Advanced Practice Professionals Chapter 11: Low-Volume, No-Volume Practitioners Chapter 12: The Aging Physician Chapter 13: Proctoring (FPPE) Chapter 14: Peer Review (OPPE): Some Best Practices Chapter 15: Dealing with the Physician with Problems Chapter 16: Corrective Action: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Chapter 17: Physicians and Hospital Administration: They''re Just Different Chapter 18: EMTALA and Emergency Department Coverage Chapter 19: Conflicts of Interest Chapter 20: Economic Credentialing Chapter 21: Physician-Nursing Relationships Chapter 22: Health Care Finance: A Primer Chapter 23: Medical Errors Disclosure Chapter 24: Employed Practitioners Chapter 25: Contracted Practitioners Chapter 26: Confidentiality Chapter 27: Accreditation and Regulation Chapter 28: Bylaws and Related Documents Chapter 29: Medical Staff Governance: Myths and Misconceptions Chapter 30: Personal Characteristics of Great Leaders Who will benefit from this book?

You are a great clinician. But do you have the tools to become a great leader? 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.

Sudden Leadership by Malcolm Ogborn Pdf

If you have been tapped on the shoulder to take on a formal or informal physician, medical, healthcare or technical field leadership role, and are wondering "How do I do this?", this book is here to help. In a creative yet straightforward fashion, Dr. Malcolm Ogborn provides a valuable and insightful resource that can support professionals, particularly physicians, who find themselves thrust into leadership roles requiring knowledge and skills that have not been part of their professional training. Sudden Leadership follows the early leadership journeys of two fictitious physicians. For each scenario in which the characters find themselves, Dr. Ogborn reviews relevant, evidence-based literature and offers pragmatic and field-tested approaches that allow new professional leaders to face their challenges with confidence. Topics include • defining your leadership, including knowing when to take a leadership role and when to turn it down • attracting and, more importantly, engaging followers and knowing when to lead by being a good follower • motivating and managing others doing the work and mastering the skills of delegation • running meetings that actually work rather than get in the way of work • handling tough conversations skilfully to achieve progress not confrontation • strong team leadership by embracing the natural development of teams and skillfully adapting your leadership style to changing team needs • mastering time allocation by understanding how you think about time, how you make time related decisions, and how you hold your self accountable for good use of your time. • successfully managing conflict as an inevitable and surprisingly productive part of human experience. • preventing burnout by recognizing it as an occupational phenomenon, not a mental illness • leading change or system improvement through clear targeting, familiarity with the determinants of change acceptance, well-planned and skilled advocacy and effective recruitment of a change team and allies Engaging and educational, Sudden Leadership will make a vital addition to any professional's library.
