Kurt Mosley, a nationally recognized authority on medical staffing issues and trends, discussed one of the most critical challenges facing the healthcare system today. Mr. Mosley leads Merritt Hawkins & Associates, the nation’s top physician search firm.

Nearly every medical and physicians’ association is sounding the alarm about a looming physician shortage. Find out why there’s a shortage and learn how it is affecting all stages of healthcare delivery. Within our own community, learn how patients, physicians and hospitals will be affected, why our community is and should be concerned, and what we can do to address the impending shortage.
