My husband, an MD, has a new job as the medical director for primary care for a big multi-site FQHC. He is constantly clashing with the large operations division and feels the reporting structure is a mess. Very top-heavy and heavy handed.
His question is, is there an accessible resource he could share and use in meetings when he is pushing for changes to reporting structure? Something that identifies best practices in healthcare organizational structure. So he can rely on science. Sadly he does not have time to give them a whole class or even a long academic article. Anyone aware of reports, toolkits, etc. on this topic?
Thanks!
Jen
