Strengthening doctor's office/hospital ties.
Relations between the physician's office and the hospital are important to patients, physicians, and to the physician's office staff. Lack of communication, misinformation, and mistakes often can put unnecessary strain on the relationship and can cause conflict between the physician and his staff and the hospital. Several hospitals and their medical staffs have worked to promote good physician's office/hospital relations through programs that improve communications.
