Through fall 2022 and spring 2023, the PHC Physicians and Surgeons Society consulted physicians on priorities for Facility Engagement funding to sustain and continue our progress to build an engaged medical staff culture at Providence. Your feedback was used to inform a framework of strategic priorities and a new strategic action plan and budget, currently in development.
