Healthcare Behavioral Psychologists

Throughout history, human decision making has made a sizable impact on the course of events. A change in one key decision or one motivational change could have dramatically altered the way things turned out. In your healthcare organization, someone or some team made the decision that insider risk mitigation ought to be a core business strategy. And in much the same way, decisions and motivations will influence the potential insider threat and turn them into a real one. Your insider risk management team needs someone who can identify and understand these motivations, explain them to other members of team, and apply these principles to improve processes and further lessen risk. That is where behavioral psychologists can come in and offer substantial value to your healthcare organization.
