Barlow/McCarthy SurveyBy: Kriss Barlow, RN, MBA

Perhaps it is human nature to be interested in how others implement the physician relations role.   Of course we realize that every organization has its own strategy and every medical staff is unique. Having said that, it can be gratifying, challenging and/or affirming to see what others are doing.

There are great surveys that look at the comprehensive physician relations structure and model. That’s not this one. The attached survey asks just 5 easy questions and is really designed to share what people are focused on for this year and how they believe it will change in the future.

Participation offers two benefits:

  1. You can compare your program with others
  2. Just going through the process is a good reminder of current and future priorities

It will take just a minute to give us your insights before May 15, 2014. If you include your name we will enter you in our drawing for a book and coffee.

Thanks in advance and please look for the results in the summer edition of Barlow/McCarthy’s Market Tenor newsletter.
