Webinar: Improving the Performance of Employed Providers

This webinar will focus on fundamental concerns and challenges facing emergency medicine and hospital medicine programs with hospital-employed providers, including additional insight from Dr. Scott Ellner, an executive at Centura Health.

The current reimbursement environment is forcing hospital administrators to closely evaluate provider performance and productivity, along with program performance. So much so, they’re reexamining insourcing vs. outsourcing, cost effectiveness, revenue growth, and overall patient satisfaction. How do you know if your current model is performing optimally? 

Join this webinar to learn best practices for:

• Leadership/communication
• Financial alignment
• Reporting and practice management tools
