In this episode, PLJ editorial board member Rick Richards, MD, MMM, CPE, talks with PLJ Managing Editor Jason Davis about a Field Report article in the July-August 2018 issue of the Journal, which takes a look at medical groups as the key to health system operations, as the core of care delivery and as a driver of success.

The report is designed for readers to decide if their organizations are hitting the mark.

Richards, a physician and self-described “serial entrepreneur,” talks about the challenges medical groups might face, and the role of physician leadership in helping them find success – not just for the business, but for the patient.

For over 45 years.

The American Association for Physician Leadership has helped physicians develop their leadership skills through education, career development, thought leadership and community building.

The American Association for Physician Leadership (AAPL) changed its name from the American College of Physician Executives (ACPE) in 2014. We may have changed our name, but we are the same organization that has been serving physician leaders since 1975.
