Is There a Doctor in the House? The Benefits of Partnering a Physician with Patient Advocacy

2pm ET / 1pm CT / 12pm MT / 11am PT – Wondering how to take your Patient Advocacy team to the next level? This webinar will walk through the advantages of having a physician champion working closely with your advocacy team. We will cover physician engagement, clinical oversight, quality review, and key concepts that make for a successful physician partnership. Presenters will share their journey of how they built the physician role and made it a key stakeholder, not just within the advocacy team, but within the larger infrastructure of the organization. The physician champion plays a pivotal role in connecting with patients, advocates, and fellow physicians and advance practice providers, allowing for a fully patient-and-provider centric view on a highly regulated process.
