Have you ever stopped to think about how your hospital would operate if the MSSD no longer existed? Who would prepare the hundreds of credentials files? Who would make sure the hospital’s privileging forms were up to date? Who would coordinate the next medical staff leadership retreat? And most importantly, who would remind you when it was time to submit your own credentialing and privileging reapplications?
You may not even be aware of all of the work that goes on in the MSSD. But this week is your chance to find out and to thank the members of your MSSD for their hard work. In 1992, President George Bush declared the first week of November as National Medical Staff Services Awareness Week.
In honor of this, HCPro is offering you and your colleagues a 15% discount on all of HCPro’s medical staff and credentialing products through No. 12. Visit the HCMarketplace and enter EO107658A during check out to receive your discount. And don’t forget to thank your MSPs!
