Why does your hospital need an effective Physician Liaison Program?

Hospital administrators know if their physicians are unhappy. They also know that they are competing for patients with other hospitals in town and in the region. How can hospitals invest limited funds in something as fleeting as "keeping physicians happy"?

First, your facility might be doing things that are "physician satisfiers" but that are in such silos that no one knows about it except a narrow population that routinely accesses this service.

Who is at the table when a meeting is held to discuss physician satisfaction, retention, recruitment and ongoing engagement?

These are all areas where Integrity IT have focused our efforts in developing a proven approach to our Physician Liaison program.

Innovative Physician Liaison Program

Integrity IT, based in Lexington, KY since 2000, has taken a program developed by Joe Danaher and Phil Miller and is about to launch this new service beyond Central Kentucky.

Essentially this service is designed to assist Hospitals and Clinics with engaging not only their affiliated physicians, but equally important (and difficult to engage), the independent Referral Physicians.

The Integrity IT Physician Liaison Program combines proven techniques for engaging physicians and keeping them interested. Our new program will help you set-up a program of your own, provide measurement tools and even involve our team in ongoing support and management if needed.

Stay tuned for more exciting details in the coming days!
