A lot of healthcare systems are moving to the Human Resource Business Partner (HRBP) Model. What are your opinions on this model?

I am not sure what it is. I see a lot of posts for it on LinkedIn.
Can you explain?

From what you've described below to SGT Private RallyPoint Member, it sounds like the HRBP is simply a model of having the HR department task-organized to support the major business units. Rather than being organized by HR functions, the HR department is organized by its customers. The business units gain improved responsiveness from their single point of contact for all HR-related needs, but may lose some specialized knowledge in some of the HR functional areas (less depth and specialization within their supporting HR unit). You can probably achieve the positives and minimize the negatives of this setup through having HR set up as a matrix organization, organized along both functional (internally) and customer (externally) lines. It can definitely be a more "customer-friendly" setup if implemented correctly.
