Target Audience
Emerging and aspiring physician leaders.
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Providers today face an era of change unlike any before. Reform policies, shifting requirements and fiscal uncertainty create a chaotic atmosphere for professionals and providers. During times like these, strong leaders with innovative and focused decision-making abilities are required. Participants in this program will gain the tools to become successful leaders in today’s complex health care environment.
PROGRAM STUCTURE
The Physician Business Leadership Certificate is achieved through attending the educational sessions (virtually in 2021), with additional requirements in networking and involvement with other industry activities. The content includes three areas of focus:
- Foundational Leadership Skills: Fundamental leadership and business skills.
- Equipping for Health Care Today: Topics helping physicians improve their execution, efficiency and effectiveness.
- Hot Topics: Issues in health care delivery affecting physicians (e.g., the opioid crisis and behavioral health issues).
PROGRAM COMPONENTS
Coursework: Before each session, participants may have minor prep work related to the session topics. This will help them be fully prepared to engage in the subject matter.
Education programs: These sessions will be led by subject matter experts and include interactive group discussions and group work.
Assessments: Following the conclusion of each program, attendees will be given a survey to examine whether the educational objectives for that session were achieved.
Networking: Peer-to-peer learning and discussion of best practices will be integrated into the sessions.
Involvement in industry education events
To qualify for the Physician Business Leadership Certification, participants must attend four additional professional or educational events within 24 months.
Examples of education events include: IHA and IMS advocacy events, IHA conferences, IHC conferences, IMS regional meetings and events, and national health care and professional development conferences. Additional registration fees may apply for some of these events.
