Learning to Fly!  Eight Rules For a Fulfilling Career.

DALE S. BENSON MD, CPE, FAAPL

Dale S. Benson MD, CPE, FAAPL, family physician and physician executive, most recently served as Vice President of Innovation, Quality and Practice Management and Director of the Leadership Development Institute for AltaMed Health Services in Los Angeles. In 1969 he founded and for thirty years served as the Executive Director of the HealthNet Community Health Centers in Indianapolis. Immediately prior to joining AltaMed he served as Vice President, Physician Practice Management and Vice President of Ambulatory Care for the Mercy Health System in Chicago.

He is certified as a Physician Executive (CPE) by the Certifying Commission in Medical Management and is a Distinguished Fellow of the American Association for Physician Leadership (FAAPL), formerly the American College of Physician Executives. During the 1998/99 term he served as President of the College. For twelve years he was also a field consultant and surveyor for the The Joint Commission.

Dr. Benson co-authored the Joint Commission book Quality Assurance in Ambulatory Care as well as the Jossey Bass book Excellence in Ambulatory Care. In 1992 he authored Measuring Outcomes in Ambulatory Care, published by the American Hospital Publishing Company. His most recent book is The Leadership Lectures, published by Blurb, Inc. in 2014. He has taught more than 80 one and two day seminars on measuring and managing quality.

He is the recipient of the President’s Award from the Society of Ambulatory Care Professionals for his contributions to the field of ambulatory care, the Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Association of Community Health Centers, and the Sagamore of the Wabash award from the Governor of Indiana (Indiana’s highest honor for service to its citizens.)

Since retiring from full time practice as a physician executive and a career in inner-city community health care, he has relocated to downtown Indianapolis where he and his wife enjoy frequent encounters with three of their four kids and spouses and ten of their fourteen grandchildren. He now serves on the Board of Directors of the Indianapolis Chapter of the Society of American Magicians.
