About the Book

Assessing the Competency of Low-Volume Practitioners
Tools and Strategies for OPPE & FPPE Compliance, Second Edition

Sally Pelletier, CPMSM, CPCS; Mark Smith

Fewer physicians are practicing in the hospital, yet The Joint Commission is placing more pressure on hospitals to verify the competency of all physicians.

The Joint Commission requires that hospitals verify physician competence using performance data. Yet organizations often have little or no data related to the competency of low- and no-volume physicians. Medical staff leaders are therefore challenged to develop a strategy that guides the hospital's relationship with low- and no-volume providers, and medical staff services departments are challenged to establish systems to verify physician competence.

This fully updated book and CD-ROM set offers the necessary tools and strategies for medical staff leaders and professionals to manage the increasing number of low- and no-volume providers and comply with Joint Commission standards.This resource will help you:

  • Understand the low- and no-volume trend
  • Manage low- and no-volume practitioners
  • Develop a strategy for aligning physician and hospital goals
  • Create medical staff categories to reflect the role of these physicians and encourage participation
  • Effectively appoint and reappoint low-volume practitioners to the medical staff
  • Document and assess performance data for low- and no-volume providers
  • Comply with FPPE and OPPE requirements
  • Effectively credential and privilege low- and no-volume providers
  • Strengthen physician-hospital relations
It provides:
  • Techniques to collect adequate data and verify competence
  • Tools to credential and privilege low and no-volume providers
  • Methods to comply with FPPE and OPPE requirements
  • Case studies to illustrate suggested strategies
  • Customizable tools and forms on CD
  • Strategies to comply with Joint Commission standards
  • Alternatives to having low- and no-volume providers on the active medical staff
  • Ways to align hospital goals with those of low- and no-volume providers

Don't let the low- and no-volume trend bog down your credentialing and privileging processes. Use this resource to manage low- and no-volume practitioners, effectively appoint and reappoint low-volume practitioners to the medical staff, and document and assess physician competency.Check out the table of contents:
