Changing Work Patterns

Physician Practice Patterns
• Physicians are seeing 3.0% fewer patients per day
than in 2012
• They are working 6.0% fewer hours from 2008
• They spend 20% of their time on non-clinical
paperwork
Result: A “Silent Exodus”
Source: A Survey of America’s Physicians: Practice Patterns and Perspectives, The Physicians Foundation/Merritt Hawkins, 2014
• A 6% reduction in work
hours (from 2008) = a
loss of 44,250 FTEs
• 3.0% fewer patients seen
per = over 30 million
fewer patient encounters
• 20% of time spent on
paperwork = a loss of
over 139,000 FTE’s
What Does the Future Hold?

• Employed physicians see
7.8% fewer patients per day
than owners
• Female physicians see
11.7% fewer patients per
day than males

Since 2012, the healthcare system in the United
States has seen more changes than in any
comparable two-year period in recent memory
• Enrollment of 12.7 million people in insurance
plans through the Affordable Care Act (ACA)
• The enrollment of an additional five million
Americans in Medicaid
• The number of retail clinics doubled and the
number of patient visits is estimated at 10.8
million per year
• An unprecedented number of hospital and
medical group consolidations
• A growing physician shortage, dramatically
highlighted this year by long lines at Veterans
Administration facilities

Moral: Value Your Physicians
Despite the growing number of providers,
physicians are at the center of the system
and control 87 percent of all spending on
personal health.

Are largely in their hands
Recruitment and Retention
Two Sides of the
Same Coin
Recruitment
HOW DO YOU ATTRACT
PHYSICIANS?
Make the practice environment
as efficient, open, remunerative
and appealing as possible.
Retention
HOW DO YOU RETAIN
PHYSICIANS?
Make the practice environment
as efficient, open, remunerative
and appealing as possible.
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:Retention
Physicians are not pulled from their practices…
…they are pushed.
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:Check Twice, Onboard Once
• Effective onboarding
practices start well before the
doctor gets to town
• Onboarding checklists
increase productivity, make
the new physician happier,
and provide cost savings
• Incorporate family onboarding
into the checklist system
• Informal one-on-one meetings
conducted 30, 60, 90 and 180 days
after the physician starts the new
position
• Not performance evaluations, but
rather a casual and friendly exchange
to learn how the physician is adapting
to new community
• Should also address how the doctor
feels they “fit in” with others in the
practice both clinically and
philosophically
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:Stay Interviews
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:Have a Vision!
Where will your facility
be in 2 years? 3 years?
5 years?
• An ACO?
• Bundled Payments?
($27,870)
• Employed Model?
• Traditional Acute Care?
• Outpatient?
• Needs Assessment?

the workshop”.

The “Screen” is the
“Art” of Physician
Recruiting
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:
Screening
“Leave your practice, Doctor,
take your kids out of school,
sell your home, and quit the
country club, because have I
got the deal for you.
Trust me.”
HOW DO YOU GO FROM
STRANGER TO CONFIDANT?
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:
Screening
14 Days
THE ARC OF PERSUASION
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:
Screening
You know your candidate (written profile, professional and personal)
The candidate knows you (setting, hours, finances, mission, etc.)
Your offer is ready
Your team is ready
The interview itinerary is ready
Now, the Stage is Set
You’ve Got a Lot of Sweat Equity
in this Search, But…
EXPECTATIONS ARE CLEAR on both sides
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:
The Interview
WHAT IS THE
INTERVIEW FOR?
Confirmation not
Exploration
THE “70/30” RULE
ONE INTERVIEW ONLY,
PHYSICIAN AND
SPOUSE
Becoming a Doctor Magnet:
The Interview
THE PYRAMID OF INTEREST
The Decision
Success!
Now, it is time to incorporate the
new physician into the Retention
Program while the Recruitment
Cycle begins again.
