The Governance Symposium--Part II. A new context for trustees.
Today you are a hospital trustee. If health care reform doesn't scare you away, tomorrow you could be governing a system, a network, a physician/hospital organization, or a community hospital that belongs to one of these other entities. managed care will change your priorities, your responsibilities, and the expectations others have of you as well as the health care delivery system. To learn more about the trustee's role in a reformed health care system, the American Hospital Association and Trustee recently convened a governance symposium (see the list of participants on the opposite page). The first part of the discussion from that symposium was presented in the August issue (see "Quantum leap," page 6). The second part focuses on the issues of board accountability and compensation and realigning incentives for the future.
