BWF 2006 Hospitalist Awards
The charge of the Awards Committee (Dr. David Bates, Dr. Sylvia McKean, Lance Rachelefsky, and Dr. Allen Smith) is to recognize individual members who have exceeded performance expectations for the BWF Hospitalist Service by establishing a process for identifying hospitalists who merit awards, developing award criteria and ensuring that the process is fair. For these awards, feedback was solicited from multiple sources including physician leaders at BWH and FH, members of the BWF Hospitalist Service, and from trainees including the current chief medical residents.

Dr. Sylvia McKean
