Assess Your Physician Relations
Organizational Maturity
with SMART

Organizational maturity is a common buzzword yet in healthcare can be difficult to assess and improve. There are few valid data sources for national healthcare leaders to use and compare themselves to true peers. There are also few models of maturity assessment that provide a healthcare-relevant continuum for improvement. Nevertheless, assessing a healthcare organizations’ current state versus best practices is a necessary foundational step for understanding where the organization is at and developing a plan for the future. It is frequently a critical component of refreshing strategic marketing plans and determining how to best allocate marketing efforts.   Endeavor Management’s (formerly Gelb) Sales and Marketing Assessment and Readiness Tool (SMART) for referring physicians is designed to meet the need of evaluating performance against best practices and is specifically tailored for physician relations. The findings from this tool identify strengths and weaknesses and prioritize areas for action. The purpose of SMART or any assessment tool is not to identify specific departments or teams as “good” or “bad” but rather to facilitate an honest conversation about capabilities and identify opportunities for improvement.
