Specifically, the fellow will develop and implement a project that supports physicians in their understanding of DOH and integration into medical practices. With counsel from the fellowship mentors, members of the Foundation’s Board of Directors, and the Physicians Foundation’s collaborating organizations, such as The Health Initiative and The Center for the Study of Physician Practice and Leadership (CPPL) at Weill Cornell, the fellow will design a project plan within the first month and present updates on the project at the quarterly Board of Directors meetings. Throughout the project, the fellow will collaborate with the Foundation’s Communications Committee to participate in media interviews, join speaking engagements, and publish articles, blogs, and social media content related to the fellow’s project. At the conclusion of the project, the fellow will work closely with this Committee to publish and promote a report on the project’s outcomes that will be displayed on the Foundation’s website.
Upon successful completion of the program, the fellow will be awarded a Certificate of Physician Leadership by The Physicians Foundation at the following quarterly meeting and expected to provide an orientation regarding their experience to the next program cohort.
