Don’t credentialing and/or privilege AHPs unless it is required (either by The Joint Commission or by your organization’s accrediting agency) or unless the services provided by the AHP category are determined to be complex and therefore a privileging process is warranted.
This week’s tip is from the HCPro audio conference “Complying with HR.1.20: What We’ve Learned About Assessment for Nonprivileged AHPs,” available in CD or Audio On-Demand format at www.hcmarketplace.com.
