Morehead Releases 2011 Data on the State of Physician Engagement

Morehead Associates will host a free webcast February 21, 2012, to report the current state of physician engagement in the U.S.

“As hospital employment of physicians continues to grow, the links between physician engagement and outcomes like patient satisfaction, safety, quality, and financial growth become more important,” says Morehead’s Senior Vice President of Product Management, Brad Morton. “Top healthcare organizations recognize the power of benchmarking their physician engagement levels with high-performing, national peer groups.”

Morehead’s national healthcare database includes physician and employee engagement data from hundreds of thousands of U.S. healthcare workers, including those at 45% of U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals, and four Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award recipients.

The February 21st webcast will explore key drivers of physician engagement, historical trends in engagement levels, and implications for physician and hospital leaders in 2012.

Members of the public, healthcare professionals, and physician leaders are invited to attend this free webcast on Tuesday, February 21, 2012 at 1:00 pm. Registration information can be found at http://www.moreheadassociates.com/events/9.
