Harmoniously Merging Physician’s Clinical Goals with the Health System’s Business Goals
Adam Robison | Chief Medical Officer, AImedicaModern healthcare is quickly evolving. The advent of EHRs and digital health is putting pressure on physicians to know more and more non-clinical information. In addition to their clinical expertise physician alignment and proficiency with financial, compliance, and administrative objectives is critical for the modern healthcare systems overall success. While physicians are experts at providing the best possible care for their patients, they receive little to no training on how to align with crucial health system initiatives resulting in friction between physician and health system stakeholders. The secret to harmoniously merging physician’s clinical goals with the health system’s business goals is increasing the application of evidence-based EHR integrated disease management.
