Abstract:

In the 1990s, managed care became the model for healthcare delivery in the United States with the goals of delivering healthcare to a greater number of patients at reduced costs. Although the goals were laudable, the increased number of patients receiving healthcare has resulted in less time per encounter, thereby weakening the patient-physician relationship. In this article, professional coaching skills are presented that show how to regain the quality of the physician-patient relationship. This improved rapport will result in more successful patient outcomes and reduced healthcare costs.
