    Medical Services Professionals (MSPs) hold a unique place in the healthcare industry. Medical staff leaders, practitioners, and providers rely on MSPs to ensure qualitative regulatory compliance, performance improvement, accreditation, credentialing and governance for physicians, practitioners, and other healthcare providers.

Their roles are rapidly changing due to competition, increased government influence, and vast changes in technology that demand service delivery improvements worldwide. The successful MSP requires a formal professional development plan, comprised of skills and knowledge for both personal and career choices. This book is presented in an easy-to-read format and contains a series of building blocks that enable MSPs to logically navigate their career progression. Each point highlights solutions for MSPs to test and apply, interspersed with real-life stories. “The Executive Services Professional” also contains a helpful glossary, sample job descriptions, and terms specific to the MSP.
