Recently, Cooper established dates for professional headshots for all of 2022 and created a reservation system to make it easier for providers to select and register for a date. The reservation system is available at https://request.cooperhealth.org/headshots/.
Provider headshots are required for web bios, announcements, and the printed provider directory for all full-time and part-time providers. These headshots also go to Cooper Medical School of Rowan University for those with faculty appointments and to Cooper IT for uploading into Epic.
Residents and fellows may also have their headshots taken for use on our GME websites.
PRN staff do not have web bios, announcements, or directory listings, so we ask that they do not get a headshot. If/when they convert to full or part time, they may get a headshot at that time.
New Jersey’s Provider Transparency Law, which went into effect in July 2021, makes it mandatory for a headshot to appear with provider bios. In addition, it is Cooper’s policy to have web bios completed, reviewed, and prepared for announcement within one week of a provider’s start date, so we appreciate department leadership’s assistance in ensuring that your providers are scheduled in a timely manner. Your providers are welcome to attend a session prior to their official start date.
Providers whose schedules do not permit them to attend an on-site session may contact the photographer to arrange a session at his studio free of charge. Please see below for the photographer’s contact information.
