Are Your Docs in a Row or a Rut?
Overview
Designing Successful Physician/Hospital PartnershipsWhile hospital and health systems attempt to gain market share through new buildings, new equipment and new service lines, an additional core strategy holds that the true drivers of market share are primary care providers (PCP’s). Retaining between 3,000 and 5,000 patients in a practice, PCP’s exert significant influence on where and how their patients receive care. Despite brand identity, community image, and the trend toward employment of specialty physicians, referrals from PCP’s are the key to success for most specialty practices and hospitals.
This series of educational teleconferences discusses how to get back to the basics by focusing on where patients enter the healthcare “demand chain” and how to meet the needs, wants and priorities of key decision makers. It outlines strategies for developing partnerships – between employed and affiliated primary care physicians, ambulatory specialists, facility-based doctors and hospitals – that lead to capturing and sustaining market share.

Ohio Peer Review
Overview
Peer review protections for Hospital incident reports and risk management reports are being incrementally eroded. Everyone thought that the issue of whether incident reports/risk management reports were protected by Ohio's peer review privilege was put to rest with the amendment of Ohio's peer review statutes several years ago. At that time, R.C. 2305.253 was enacted specifically stating that these documents were subject to peer review protection. However, in the past 2 years we have seen a growing number of cases where the courts have held that these documents are subject to discovery in medical malpractice cases because the reports have not been managed consistently with the definition of incident report/risk management report as set out in the statutory provisions. This session is designed to explore these cases and give direction on how to manage your incident reports/risk management reports whether they involve hospital personnel or members of your medical staff so that they remain protected.- More information -
