Presenter: Kathy Matzka

One of the biggest challenges medical staffs face is developing a process for evaluating the competency practitioners who have little or no hospital practice. While it is relatively easy to verify licensure, malpractice history, and hospital affiliations, it is difficult, or sometimes impossible, to obtain data to document competency. The increased focus on ongoing professional practice review by accrediting organizations emphasizes the need for an effective process for documenting the ongoing monitoring of the quality of services provided.

At the completion of this program, participant will be able to:

  • Develop appropriate forms and processes for documentation of competency for low- and no-volume practitioners
  • Discuss focused and ongoing and professional practice evaluation
  • Determine necessary changes in bylaws to reflect no- and low-volume practitioners
