Since 2019, ACMS has been attempting to launch an initiative called the Capital Coalition for Physician Well-Being. The goals of that project, outlined on our more generic PhysicianVitality.org website, is to become a trans-local medical community that is broadly committed to prioritizing physician well-being in the process of delivering healthcare. The Coalition promotes the National Charter on Physician Well-Being (NCPW) as a local aspirational standard for the greater SW Idaho medical community and also recognizes our leadership impact within the entire state.

In 2021, our goal is to produce a broadly disseminated newsletter that highlights some of the works-in-progress or already implemented innovations in well-being in healthcare. We are also exploring the possibility of interviewing some of those leaders in our local area promoting changes and do a deeper dive with them into the nuts and bolts of their initiatives. We want to highlight to others the importance of making changes that support well-being, even as the Coronavirus crisis begins to subside

To this end, we are now soliciting for ideas, solutions in progress, or successfully implemented interventions that promote physician well-being from our local area. They could be at any of the commitment levels listed here. Please fill out the form below to submit yours.
