Ethical Challenges of
Physician Executives
Course Description
How much treatment is too much when a patient is terminally ill?
What is a physician's obligation when the mother of a critically ill child
refuses consent for a recommended treatment? When an HIV patient practices
risky behavior, how do you balance the patient's right to privacy against
public welfare? How should organizational resources be responsibly managed,
especially when a healthcare organization is facing serious financial
challenges?
As a physician executive, are you equipped to deal with today's complex and
perplexing ethical issues? This program will help you take a leadership role in
developing processes for resolving ethical issues facing physicians, patients
and their families.

policies and procedures.

Responsibly managing your organization's resources.
-
Responding to patients' refusals of needed medical interventions.
-
Setting ethically justified limits on individual and organizational

-
Putting your institution to the test: gauging its commitment to ethics.
