| Product Spotlight | | 2017 CRC Symposium | | The Credentialing Resource Center (CRC) Symposium has long been among the most anticipated industry events of the year. But our team of first-class subject matter experts never stops dreaming up new ways to make the symposium even more memorable and applicable to MSPs’ and medical staff leaders’ important work. The 2017 CRC Symposium’s brand-new, can’t-miss features include: - More medical staff leadership expertise: The addition of Mark Smith, MD, MBA, FACS, senior consultant with HG Healthcare Consultants, LLC, and chief medical officer of MorCare, LLC, to the faculty doubles the number of medical staff leaders on the podium.
- New voices: Two inaugural events—the Achievement Awards ceremonies and a case study presentation—honor winners of the 2017 CRC contests and provide unique insight into what’s working for in-the-trenches MSPs and medical staff leaders. Plus, there’s still time to submit nominations for the Achievement Awards—winners attend the Symposium for free.
- More learning: We’ve expanded sessions by fifteen minutes to allow for deeper dives into crucial concepts and expanded audience participation.
- Brand-new and revamped sessions that reflect today’s most urgent medical staff and credentialing topics, including:
- Bridging the Gap and Addressing the Attribution Problem: Measuring Team Performance vs. Individual Performance.

- Credentialing at the Extremes of the Age Spectrum: Challenges Posed by Young and Old Practitioners.

In addition to the longstanding industry pain points, our expert faculty will provide targeted tips on emerging hot spots, including adapting medical staff processes for telemedicine, privileging dietitians, and neuromonitoring for physicians/technicians.
