FPPE and OPPE requirements raise the bar for anyone involved in privileging. The Joint Commission standards include language that requires these evaluations to be “privilege specific.” Imagine yourself with a privileging laundry list (and the practitioner requested all listed privileges). What should be proctored, monitored, chart reviewed, or subject to monitoring clinical practice patterns? When each privilege stands by itself, such as in laundry lists, documenting competency for each listed privilege is almost impossible. Register for a live free Webex demonstration of Core Privilege Plus on Tuesday, November 3 at 1:00 ET and learn why criteria-based privileges help medical staff organizations define and determine competency and meet regulatory requirements.
