Enlightening,
This review is from: Better Communication For Better Care: Mastering Physician-Administrator Collaboration (Executive Essentials) (Paperback)
This is a really useful book for those who work in the healthcare industry. I found the stories to be enlightening and inspiring. The book is a great tool for those who want to better understand how to cross the many functional divides within healthcare. It also provided for me several facilitative tools that I could use to initiate dialogue between disparate parties.

Better Communication for Better Care.,
This review is from: Better Communication For Better Care: Mastering Physician-Administrator Collaboration (Executive Essentials) (Paperback)
This book, a nice blend of issues and opportunities relating to physician-executive relationships, is based on well researched materials coupled with very relevant case studies. The publication is concise, to the point and an easy read. I would recommend this book both for both new and seasoned administrators-it is an excellent summary of what it takes to ensure successful medical staff-hospital relations.

Timely,
This review is from: Better Communication For Better Care: Mastering Physician-Administrator Collaboration (Executive Essentials) (Paperback)
One of the the most vexing problems our community hospitals CEO's face is their relationship with the private medical staff. In a period of declining reimbursement, high malpractice costs and increasing administrative costs that place great presssure on physicians to act with greater self interest it is easy to have a breakdown in communications. This book goes a long way in helping one to realize that neither party is powerless in a situation of a seemingly misalignment of objectives. The ideas are very decent and likely to have application in a real world situation.
