ACHE Category I Educational Program

ACHE Category I Topic June 24, 2009: Inside the Physician Mind
MHA Leadership Conference
Beau Rivage Hotel & Casino
Biloxi, MSDr. Joseph Bujak, FACP provides an insider’s perspective on the beliefs and behaviors of physicians. His insight will provoke you to question you assumptions and break through the barriers that may be keeping you from forming productive relationships with the physicians in your organization. He also provides suggestions for using your new understanding to influence physician behavior and promote enduring partnerships.
With candor and wit, Dr. Bujak shares the wisdom he has developed through his years of experience as both a physician and an administrator:
- A physician’s sense of time is very different from that of an administrator
- Being chief of staff is the equivalent of drawing the short straw
- A physician’s definition of teamwork is like the game of golf
- Traditional medical staff organization is not the vehicle for developing relationships with physicians
- A good role model for influencing physician behavior is the old TV character Columbo
- You should approach change using the metaphor of moving a Slinky
- Gen-X physicians differ greatly from traditionalist, or Baby Boomer, physicians; propositions acceptable to Xers will be rejected by the other and vice versa.
Joseph Bujak, MD, FACP currently serves as Vice-President, Medical Affairs for Kootenai Medical Center, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, where he has organizational responsibility for performance improvement and outcomes measurement. He focuses on the reorganization of the provider community and the redesign of healthcare delivery. He appreciates the impact of changing medical economics on the provider community, understands the use of information in support of clinical process improvement, and applies the theories of systems thinking and complexity science to leadership and management in health care.
Dr. Bujak believes that future success requires the capacity to know how to initiate and manage transformational change and the ability to align incentives around proper measurement. Creating context, emphasizing relationships, distinguishing substance from form, and sharing purpose and principles are the keys to becoming the successful architect of your own future.
His past experiences in clinical research, medical education, primary and specialty medical practice, and administration give him a unique breadth of perspective and help establish credibility with the many constituencies within the provider community.
Dr. Bujak graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Rutgers University . He received his medical degree from the University of Rochester where he was elected to Alpha Omega Alpha.
