Introduction

2026 Pathways Leadership Training Webinar Series

2026 Leadership Training Program:

Modernize Your Medical Staff Bylaws In 8 Hours or Less!
Essential Provisions and Updates That Every Medical Staff Should Be Thinking About in 2026


The 2026 Pathways Training Program will focus on essentials of, and updates to, the hospital’s Medical Staff Governance Documents, including the Medical Staff Bylaws and Medical Staff Credentialing Policy.

We will cover the fundamentals of Medical Staff structure and organization, focusing on Bylaw and policy provisions that have helped countless Medical Staff leaders from large organizations and small to optimize efficiency, effectiveness, and engagement in an era where many clinicians feel less compelled to participate in the Medical Staff as an organization.  This year’s Pathways will also address the ways that Bylaws documents – and particularly the Medical Staff Credentials Policy – can help Health Systems, Hospitals, and Medical Staffs to promote quality, while remaining inclusive and expediting the onboarding process as much as possible.

The Pathways series includes the following four sessions:

  • Session 4: Bylaws & Policies Addressing Advanced Practice Professionals, Plus HOT TOPIC Updates (Joint Commission 2026, Artificial Intelligence, and More!)
    December 11, 2026 | Noon to 2:00 p.m. EST
    Faculty: Rachel Remaley and Fisher Filippazzo

About the Pathways Leadership Training Program

What is Pathways?  It’s online training for hospital and physician leaders who are looking to develop and enhance the skills they need to manage and oversee the hospital’s Medical Staff. Key features include:

FOCUSED
Each Pathways series is focused on a topic – or “theme” – that health system, hospital, and physician leaders have told us is essential and timely.  Avoiding the sound bites and consultant-talk that permeate so many leadership training courses that are on the market, Pathways favors a deeper discussion of the topics at hand and take-home tips that can be implemented right away.

INCLUSIVE
Medical Staff leadership does not occur in a vacuum.  While the “self-governance” of the Medical Staff is largely the purview of the organization’s practicing physicians, a multitude of individuals and bodies support and oversee Medical Staff activities:  Board members, advanced practice clinicians, health system and hospital administrators, quality professionals, medical staff services professionals, HR professionals, executive recruiters, and more!  Pathways web-based format allows organizations to finally make Medical Staff leadership training available to all of these individuals, fostering shared understanding and the implementation of aligned and unified policies, procedures, and leadership strategies across the organization.

ACCESSIBLE
Each Pathways webinar has been designed to require a minimal-to-moderate time commitment and to allow training to be completed from the comfort of your own home or workplace.  With four 2-hour web-based training sessions spread over the course of several months, participation in the Pathways leadership program means not having to forego leadership development when time for training is limited or travel is difficult or impossible.
