The World Congress 2nd Annual Leadership Summit on Physician Liaisons

The role of the Physician Liaison has arisen as an effective way to protect both the physician-hospital relationship and the revenue from referrals. The World Congress 2nd Annual Leadership Summit on Physician Liaisons is the only event that delivers a combined approach to physician relation and referral management. Join us to hear proven best practices to begin or enhance your physician liaisons program AND to align with hospital strategy, physician relations, marketing, and business development. This is the must-attend event for:

  • Developing a diverse portfolio of physician relationships
  • Building a physician referral program from scratch or strengthening existing services
  • Convening hospital leaders at the crux of referral, revenue, and quality care management

Case studies will demonstrate applicable strategies from successful hospitals that address current trends affecting the liaison role and deliver tools to demonstrate the ROI on physician liaison programs. Executive panels and forums discuss strategic data-based plan development that targets physicians to drive referrals, increase revenue, and fill the hospital with the right patients. This year, we are going above and beyond by positioning the physician liaison at the forefront of health care reform and the intersection of relationships, revenue, and patient care.
