Having trouble gathering enough competency data on physicians who rarely darken your hospital’s door but still request privileges? Join Jon Burroughs MD, MBA, FACPE, CMSL, and Sally Pelletier, CPMSM, CPCS for a 90-minute solutions-based workshop. This workshop will provide you with practical strategies and tools to help you manage the increasing number of low- and no-volume providers on your medical staff.

- Modify your medical staff bylaws to address the decreasing number of hospital-based practitioners
- Develop easy-to-understand physician feedback reports for low-volume practitioners
