Finance for Medical Staff Leaders
Course Description
As a leader on your organization's medical staff, you likely carry out peer review, make complex credentialing and privileging decisions, and fulfill other critical responsibilities that directly affect patient care, your organization's success, and even your own and your colleagues' livelihoods. Moving into an important medical staff leadership position without any training just sets you up to fail. You may not be able to commit the time and resources to leadership and management training appropriate for a career physician executive. That doesn't mean you have to face these new and often difficult challenges unprepared.
This course provides an introduction to finance--the vocabulary, translating reports and the economics of revenue and cost.
