• “AmeriMed exceeded all of St. Bernardine's requirements and put together a very detailed 5-year plan that will ensure the communities that we support and our medical staff have the needed number of specialty and primary care physicians for the future of the hospital and the community. I was particularly impressed with AmeriMed’s attention to detail. We needed to know how many of our medical staff were full-time, how many part-time, and how many split time between us and other facilities. AmeriMed’s consultants did a meticulous job of contacting physicians to accurately determine their status, which was important to the credibility of the plan. They then made recommendations regarding the type and number of specialists they believed we needed. We ran these recommendations by our key primary care leaders who agreed with them exactly. At a time when physician/hospital relations are coming under increasingly government focus, particularly here in California, it is important to have the back-up of a sound, well-conceived medical staff plan. I can recommend AmeriMed’s process and it’s people highly for this task.”

• “We examined a variety of medical staff planning models when we put out our request for proposals, and in reviewing the options available, we determined that AmeriMed Consulting delivers the most comprehensive and detailed product on the market. The firm provided us with an extremely thorough, well researched, five-year medical staff assessment and development plan. In addition to assembling a wide range of data, AmeriMed’s consultants displayed excellent communications skills during their on-site interviews with our physicians. They were able to enlist our physicians’ cooperation and obtain from them important information regarding their own practices and the recruiting needs they see in our service area.
  
  The resulting document has been very useful from a strategic planning perspective. In addition, it has been vital in enabling us to create competitive physician recruiting incentive packages. Using the information in the plan, we are able to justify the recruiting incentives we are offering to physicians based on community need. We were very satisfied with AmeriMed and have enthusiastically recommended them to others.”

• “We are utilizing our Medical Staff Development Plan to enhance our system’s access to physicians by recruiting to targeted geographic needs as well as to expand outreach areas for specialty care.
   
  We found AmeriMed’s services unique in how they were physician focused as well as the depth of information gathered to form the plan. An in-depth physician focused plan is better received by everyone involved. We have a mixed medical staff of employed and private practice. The private practice groups may not like the outcome but, they had input so it gives more creditability to the plan when we are using it to justify a recruit no matter how they will be engaged in practice.”

• “AmeriMed has a lot of creditability around our facility. Their services and plan gave us a clear picture of what we needed in the way of recruitment, Retention and Succession Planning. Their findings were met by full support from the board, our medical staff and our community. We now know where we are today and where we are going tomorrow. Since our first Medical Staff Development Plan with AmeriMed we have recruited 37 new practitioners.
  
  I would highly recommend AmeriMed¹s services to any facility, medical network or clinic - without a doubt.”

• “We have worked with AmeriMed Consulting on our Medical Staff Development Plan several times. Each and every time the plan exceeds the
  expectations set by the last.
  
  The team of consultants at AmeriMed stays in touch with us every step of the way. They are very professional, intelligent, efficient and
  detail-oriented. I have nothing, but positive things to say about the process.
  
  Our medical staff was very supportive of the findings included in the report. Their service and recommendations have guided our long-range
  recruiting plan for our overall tertiary market.”
  
  - by Beth Vance-Wehrli, Manager, Physician Support Services, Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center, Boise, ID
  
  
• “AmeriMed completed two assignments for our facility – a survey of our medical society and a hybrid medical staff development plan tailored to our needs and to our budget. The expertise and knowledge of the firm’s consultants created a great deal of credibility with our physicians. The plan demonstrated a quantified, articulated approach to staffing that helps build our initial justification for recruitment. I believe the plan would serve us well should it become necessary to defend our recruitment position.
  
  The data presented certainly met my expectations and those of my vice president. We appreciated AmeriMed’s willingness to modify their approach to fit our needs. Overall, the attitude, professionalism, and timeliness of the firm was topnotch. I am happy to provide them with a very favorable reference.”
