Physician Recruitment

A Marketing Approach to Physician Recruitment is a how-to manual designed to assist hospitals in the physician recruitment process, or to enhance already existing recruitment programs. Given the ever-changing status on health care reform, hospital administrators and physicians are faced with the challenge of meeting the growing needs of patients, as well as their own internal priorities. In order to survive, the medical profession as a whole must make the commitment to identify the needs of the community it serves, while integrating the activities and roles of departments, boards and staff. In the past, physician recruitment has tended to itself. As part of a competitive system, neither the individual provider nor the medical group can afford to ignore its physician profile. This book is aware of the needs of today's hospitals and presents a program to facilitate the process of recruiting physicians. The authors provide the reader with a step-by-step physician recruiting process. They include additional materials to support the recruiting process. The book is comprised of four sections. The process section provides organization for the recruitment program by assisting readers with creating a written plan. The resources section facilitates that plan's effectiveness by providing information for developing pro forms, community support, letters, tracking forms, incentive packages, and legal documents. The reference section lists organizations, contact names, addresses, and phone numbers needed for recruiting. A Marketing Approach to Physician Recruitment is the only book of its kind. Hospitals can use it to develop a practical and proven process for recruiting physicians. It is an effective tool for meeting the needs of patients and physicians alike.

The youth of the ocean floors (0- .3Ma) verses the age of plate tectonics (2-3 Ma) suggests strongly that plate tectonics is cyclic. Densified silicate liquid(Ls) at about 290km depth suggests that it could be the ingredient that lightens the outer core as well as an active ingredient in its activities along with lower mantle phases high density magnesium provoskite (MgPv), calcium perovskite (CaPv), magnesiumwustite (Mw), iron(Ir) and iron liquid(Lm) plus isobarically and isothermally invariant liquid phases. Unstable convective contacts among these phases at all levels produce heat as they tend toward stable equilibrium. This heat expands against the earth's mantle and even causes the inner core to melt with 5cc\g. Eventually, the core-mantle boundary fails along lines and / or points to allow for the exit of densified silicate liquid. This liquid reacts with the lower mantle to produce unique liquids FOZO for oceanic island basalts and C-Component for the ridge and rise basalts ofthe Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans. It is thought that these ejected liquids react to form hot solid plumes of low viscosity that ascend to 290 km where they melt on decompression to basalt that ascends further to create oceanic crust. Sea-floor spreading followed by subduction to the earth's core where the cycle ends to begin... again and again. A hypothetical ternary system is used to illustrate the cycle from beginning to end. Experimental evidence indicates that the core-mantle boundary may be as simple as a quaternary reaction: MgPv + CaPv +Mw = Ls + Lm, where Ls probably contains some Fe203.
