Designing the Future: Physician Collaborations Advance Clinical Standardization While Optimizing Organizations and Networks

In today's rapidly changing healthcare landscape, staying ahead of emerging trends and strategies is crucial for healthcare leaders. This session focuses on how strong physician and clinician relationships affect clinical standardization, organizational optimization and network development while addressing the challenges posed by financial pressures, competition for talent and industry disruptors. We aim to equip participants with the knowledge and tools needed to excel in this dynamic environment. This session will highlight the importance of the integration of physician leadership into operational improvements and the adoption of innovative care models spanning various settings, from acute to home-based care. Through an interactive discussion led by industry experts, including insights from CommonSpirit Health, participants will gain practical strategies applicable across the continuum of care, with a focus on cardiovascular service line opportunities. Experts will explore best practices and market-specific considerations for optimizing services, drawing from experiences across diverse healthcare markets. From rural healthcare to competitive metropolitan settings, participants will learn how to tailor strategies to local contexts while navigating industry disruptors. Attendees will be provided take-home tools, methodologies and case studies to support implementation in individual markets, with ample opportunity for interactive engagement and Q&A throughout.

Learning Objectives:

• Execute effective techniques to advance physician collaboration, encompassing clinical standardization and optimizing healthcare organizations and networks to effectively respond to shifting external pressures while maintaining alignment with localized strategic objectives.
