Service Frequently Asked Questions

For Hospitals

Hospital clients and the anesthesiologists, CRNAs, and hospitalists contracting with Clinical Colleagues view safety and quality care for patients as the ultimate goal, striving together to achieve contract management services that are open, respectful, creative, and flexible. Clinical Colleagues is a practice management organization comprised of physicians, healthcare providers, and business professionals dedicated to the ethical and cost-effective provision of hospital-based medical services in the area of anesthesia and hospitalist.

Hospital Administrators who come to select Clinical Colleagues as their partner in providing anesthesia or hospitalist services are often facing an impending staffing crisis that could have a significant impact on patient care. When they contact Clinical Colleagues, Hospital administrators immediately begin to receive the benefit of a hands-on, responsive team with:

  • years of successful, ethical medical practice management
  • expertise that shapes creative solutions for crisises
  • experience that values flexibility because there is no "one right answer"

Change brings about concern and is unsettling - even much needed change. Clinical Colleagues understands that managing and supporting a change in anesthesia or hospitalist services is just as important as what goes into making the decision. The Clinical Colleagues partners, Regional Medical Officers, and business administrators comprise a team that:

  • is knowledgeable, accessible, and responsible
  • is present and on-site during the transition
  • meets with key physicians, nurses, CRNAs, members of the administrative team
  • answers questions and address concerns
  • is respected by the anesthesiologists, CRNAs, and hospitalists who contract with Clinical Colleagues.

If the anesthesia or hospitalist service of your hospital is in need of a change, lacks leadership or cohesion, or is facing a staffing crisis, please contact Clinical Colleagues. By completing our service questionnaire, you are taking one of the first steps to achieving the long-term creative and flexible solution you desire.

for hospitals

When the CEO of one of our current client hospitals approached Clinical Colleagues, he was experiencing a marginally-performing anesthesia practice.

There was one independent "solo" anesthesiologist, one hospital employed anesthetist, plus several locum tenens anesthetists.

There was no team.

There was no cohesive delivery of patient care.

Clinical Colleagues revised and improved the anesthesia model.

We ultimately combined the practice into one successful independent anesthesia practice, bringing about leadership, staff stability, and optimal revenue capture.

It is an open, respectful, creative, and flexible solution.
