With a physician shortage on the horizon and coverage expansion just months away, organizations are expanding their clinician ranks to include advanced practitioners (APs). But many organizations struggle to maximize these investments, partly because they misunderstand their resource needs.
When practices request different staff than they actually need, practice administrators cannot make the rigorous, strategic decisions about deployment that enable optimal collaboration. The Medical Group Strategy Council’s research on team-based care addresses these issues and answers two critical questions:
- How do you structure the care team?
- How do you strengthen collaboration?
Download an excerpt from this research to learn how to systematically evaluate AP deployment, one of our best practices for maximizing a team-based approach to care delivery.
