In this episode, Jonathan Leer, Division Administrator at Johns Hopkins and Shannon Bishop, Academic Administrator at Johns Hopkins, join the MGMA Member Spotlight podcast. They discuss a new physician business training course that Johns Hopkins partnered with MGMA on to provide business and financial education to physicians that is not typically taught in medical school.
Key Takeaways:
* Physicians receive extensive medical training but no formal business training, causing gaps in knowledge when entering practice.
* The new self-paced online course has 9 modules covering topics like practice models, insurance, compensation, personal finance, and more.
* It includes proprietary benchmark salary data from MGMA to help physicians negotiate fair compensation packages.
* The course provides 7 hours of CME credit.
* It's designed for residents, fellows, and early-mid career physicians entering leadership roles.
