Develop and use a recommended level of qualifications (RLOQ) statement for the clinical area in question when faced with turf areas in privileging. Match applicants' qualifications against this statement. Physicians trained in various types of formal residencies, and even some with only informal training and experience, may be found qualified to exercise the requested clinical privilege. Ordinarily, qualified individuals would be allowed to exercise the privilege unless the board of directors or other governing authority of the organization establishes polices or enter into contracts the supersede the authority of the privileging process.
