Paul Levy shares why hospital CEOs should blog
As many of you know, Paul Levy, CEO of Boston's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, is an avid blogger who advocates for more transparency in healthcare (he even disclosed his own compensation package and asked folks to comment on whether they think he's overpaid).
Anne Zieger, FierceHealthcare's senior editor who named Levy as one of nine people to watch in healthcare, recently talked with Levy about how his views on blogging have evolved over the years.
FierceHealthcare: So what do you think has been the net benefit to the hospital--or you--with having this ongoing relationship with the blog?
Paul Levy: I'd be hard-pressed to say that it's had any benefit to the hospital, per se; at least it's hard to measure that kind of thing.
