Do the right thing. When it comes to your community, do you know what that is? Roundtable discussion.

What is the health care organization's responsibility to maintaining a healthy community, and how does the board fit into that role? Has the field's understandable fixation on costs and the penetration of managed care into most markets affected that role? Leaders of both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations often believe that they are fulfilling their community obligations as long as they provide uncompensated care to the indigent and the uninsured. But is that really being accountable to the community? And if it's not, then what is community accountability? The American Hospital Association's Division of Trustee Leadership and Trustee magazine posed these questions to 13 health care and community leaders last December. Their different perspectives provide for some surprising answers.

Challenges of leadership in an era of health care reform.

Health care leadership has never been more difficult than in the past decade--and the next ten years promise to be even more demanding. As a new era for health care emerges, organizational leaders will be required to manage increased levels of risk, uncertainty, and rapid change. Successful chief executives will be those who recognize and nurture intangible leadership qualities including knowledge of self, commitment to service, and depth and breadth of vision. With the continued shift away from hospital inpatient care, health care leaders will be called on to develop multipurpose delivery systems that move from a market-based to a community-based focus and deliver high quality services in a cost-effective manner. Several leadership themes will unfold in the midst of health care reform, including: exploiting change for the good of the organization and community; serving as educator, communicator, and comforter to divergent constituencies; and reestablishing a balance between short-term goals and long-term vision.
