  • Data collected from physicians, nurses, and administrators within three academic medical center service lines.
  • Analysis of factors correlated with perceived success in quality, efficiency, patient satisfaction, and work environment.
  • Main Results:

    • A consistent set of factors (shared values, trust, personal engagement) emerged across service lines and professional groups.
    • These factors strongly correlated with perceived success in quality, efficiency, patient satisfaction, and work environment.
    • No significant improvement was found in objective performance data; differing professional group views on collaboration were observed.

    Conclusions:

    • Shared values, trust, and engagement are critical for perceived collaborative success in academic medical centers.
    • Despite positive perceptions, objective performance improvements were not demonstrated, indicating a gap in translation.
    • Managing interprofessional collaboration requires addressing diverse professional perspectives within hospital settings.
