When considering a change to the format of your physician competency feedback report, assemble a pilot group of physicians to review the proposed format before generating competency feedback reports for all medical staff members. The pilot group can assess the format, make any changes or additions, review the types of data included in the report, and answer any questions that arise once the report is distributed to the general medical staff.
This week’s tip is from Measuring Physicain Competency: How to Collect, Assess, and Provide Performance Data, by Robert Marder, MD; Mark Smith, MD; Marla Smith, MHSA; and Vicki Searcy, CPMSM.
