Administrative knowledge and skills needed by physician executives.
Physician Exec. 1994 Jun; 20(6):3-7.PE

Abstract

A survey was mailed to 100 physician executives identified through the 1991 American College of Physicians Executives directory. The subjects were asked to rate 17 managerial areas on their value to the subjects' current work, on the subjects' preparation in the areas, and on the need for training in the areas. In addition, the subjects were asked how best to accomplish training in the areas and for a list of areas of greatest importance in the future for physician executives. The subjects rated communication skills, quality assurance, utilization review, and personnel management as being of primary value in their current roles. Preparation was most adequate in communication skills and most inadequate in the areas of finance and organizational management. Training was deemed desirable in all areas, but was thought to be most necessary in communication skills, negotiations, strategic planning, and organizational management. There was least desire for training in the areas of labor law and employment law. The most popular means of training were doing a fellowship in administrative medicine, receiving continuing education through seminars or workshops, or getting a degree in management.
