Today, it takes an average of 224 days to fill an open physician role. As recruitment timelines lengthen, physician shortages persist, and patient demand continues to grow, healthcare leaders are rethinking how to build sustainable staffing models that support long-term clinical workforce stabilization.
At the upcoming 13th Annual Becker's CEO + CFO Roundtable, Medicus will host a session titled Leading Through the Physician Shortage: A New Era of Workforce Stabilization. The discussion will feature three healthcare executives who have led systemwide efforts to strengthen staffing models, improve retention, and maintain access to care.
Panelists Include:
- Dr. Michael Loftus, Senior Vice President, Chief Medical and Quality Officer, RWJBarnabas Health
- Dr. Kevin Gebke, Senior Vice President, Indiana University Health
- Dr. Matthew Broom, Vice President and Chief Medical Officer, BJC Medical Group
Drawing from their experiences across service lines such as radiology, anesthesiology, gastroenterology, and hospital medicine, these leaders will share how their organizations have navigated workforce disruption and advanced workforce stability. The discussion will explore how interim healthcare staffing solutions, including the Medicus Transition Program, along with innovative workforce models, can help sustain care delivery, strengthen retention, and support ongoing workforce planning.
