Management of Health Systems |
The Program Requirements for Graduate Medical Education in Family Medicine include specific curricular areas such as the Management of Health Systems.
The UND Center for Family Medicine offers at least 100 hours of management and leadership instruction to include both the didactic and the practical settings. This curriculum prepares residents to assume leadership roles in their practices, their communities, and the profession of medicine.
The UND Center for Family Medicine is considered the primary site for teaching management and leadership skills, and serves as an example on which residents may model their future practices. Each resident receives reports of individual and practice productivity, financial performance, patient satisfaction and clinical quality, as well as the training needed to analyze these reports. Residents must attend regular monthly business meetings with staff and faculty to discuss practice-related policies and procedures, business and service goals, and practice efficiency and quality. They must participate in projects to improve the quality of care and service delivered to the UND Center for Family Medicine patient population.
The Management of Health Systems curriculum includes, but is not limited to the following: current billing practices, designing and managing a budget, assessing practice staffing needs, the impact of new technologies on practice, determining value in the marketplace, assessing customer satisfaction, office scheduling systems, computers in practice, alternative practice models, and employment law and procedures. Residents also learn principles of public relations, media training, and personnel management.
The leadership curriculum includes training to provide leadership for a clinical practice, a hospital medical staff, professional organizations, and community leadership skills to advocate for the public health.
