Today's healthcare system demands a strong effective leadership from physicians as it is changing from fee-for-service payment to a pay-for-performance model.

In a recent article published by Health Affairs titled “The First National Survey of ACOs Finds That Physicians Are Playing Strong Leadership and Ownership Roles” cites that –

51 % of ACOs were physician-led, with another 33% jointly led by physicians and hospitals. In 78 % of ACOs, physicians constituted a majority of the governing board, and physicians owned 40 %of ACOs.

Physician leadership in ACOs will influence how clinicians and patients perceive the ACO model and how effective these organizations are at improving clinical outcomes, quality and costs.

The webinar titled “Leadership Competencies for Successful ACOs” will describe critical skills required for leaders to make public and private ACOs successful.
