Dual CMOs a First; Expect More Hospitals to Follow
Children's National Medical Center believes it is the first pediatric hospital, if not one of the first hospitals in the nation, to employ joint CMOs. The two will deal with what the hospital calls the "complexity of the evolving healthcare landscape" and population health management.
This dual CMO role makes a huge amount of sense. Health care is complex, it is a business, and there are so many changes yet to come. Other organizations have named two CMOs in a different way - one CMO or quality and safety, and the other CMO for physician relations and medical staff governance. Kudos to Children's for being on the leading edge!
