Contacting retiring physicians, reviewing data gathered about their practice, making recommendations regarding replacements. b. Meeting with potential new recruits, working with the Zone Recruitment Officer, making recommendations to the Head regarding payment models and deliverables.
  5. Chair meetings of the Network Family Practice Council on a regular basis (every 4-6 weeks) in addition to biannual department meetings with the family physicians of the network.
  6. Maintain linkages with family physicians within the Network, working to promote the functions and activities of the DFP including (but not limited to) engaging in ad hoc meetings and interactions with individual physicians and family practice teams, either in person or by telephone.
  7. Attend meetings of network physicians (where there are meetings) as required either accompanying the Zone Department Head or attending in their stead.
  8. Liaise with the regional hospital and CEC site leads in the network where applicable through the Network Council and on an ad hoc basis.
  9. Assess minor complaints or SIMS reports concerning family physicians within the network and refer to the Zone Department Head as indicated.
