About this book
Authored and edited by a prestigious team of academic clinician-educators affiliated with the Society of General Internal Medicine (SGIM), this now fully updated and expanded second edition of Leading an Academic Medical Practice provides a roadmap for clinic directors, core faculty, and educational leaders seeking to develop and administer a successful and cutting-edge academic medical practice.
Each chapter of this book focuses on a particular aspect of clinic leadership and offers real-world examples and management "pearls" to help readers translate theory into practice. In addition to updated core content on topics such as Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) requirements, ambulatory curricula, clinical workflows, billing & coding, population health, evaluation and feedback, patient-centered medical home (PCMH) implementation, controlled substance policies, and student engagement, this new edition also focuses on issues particularly relevant for today's medical practice including social justice, diversity in residency practices, healthcare advocacy, physician burnout, telemedicine, and crisis management (e.g., public health emergencies).
This resource is an ideal companion for academic clinician-educators across all levels of training and experience. Aspiring and new clinic directors will find this book offers essential tools to get started, and seasoned clinic leaders can use this publication to elevate their practice to the next level. In addition to clinic directors, core faculty, and administrative and educational leaders in academic outpatient medicine, healthcare specialists focused on system-based practice, quality-improvement, and patient safety will also find this resource valuable. Those working within the fields of primary care, internal medicine, and related specialties will find this book to be of special relevance.
Now more than ever, the complexities of leading an academic medical practice present a unique challenge. This book, both comprehensive and practical, will help to overcome these challenges today and in the years to come.Keywords
