Have you voted for the Most Powerful Physician Exec of the Year?

Modern Healthcare posted its 2009 ballot of the 50 Most Powerful Physician Executives. You can vote for one of the 100 final nominees, selected from 4,300 total nominations, according to the Modern Healthcare Web site.

Among the superstars on the list are:

• Ron Greeno, MD, founder and chief medical officer of Cogent Healthcare, Brentwood, Tenn. You may have seen Greeno at last year’s HCPro seminar Developing and Maximizing your Hospitalist Program in September 2008. You can also read why he advocates for more accurate patient satisfaction surveys in our article, “Experts say quality surveys flawed: The case for redesigning patient satisfaction surveys” (Nov. 2008 HMA).
• David J. Shulkin, MD, president and CEO of Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City. Read how he makes a case for utilizing nocturnists in our article, “Making your choice: On-call overnight physicians verses 24/7 staffing” (Aug. 2008 HMA).
• Adam Singer, MD, founder, chairman, and CEO of IPC-The Hospitalist Co. in North Hollywood, Calif. Read this month’s Q&A excerpts on our blog.
• Robert M. Wachter, MD, chief of the division of hospital medicine at the University of San Francisco Medical Center. Wachter has been a valuable resource on a number of our publications.

Congrats to all the nominees, and good luck! Remember to cast your vote!

You can expect the results from Modern Healthcare of the 50 Most Powerful Physician Executives of the Year on May 11.
