CRC Member Exclusive | Reviewing requests for new technology privileges | Advances in healthcare delivery continue at an exponential speed. Technologies, procedures, and treatments that were not even dreamed of several years ago are now realities. It is certain that, as a medical staff leader, you will be faced with the inevitable request from one of your medical staff members to bring the latest and greatest advancement to your organization. Medical staff leaders must take a series of steps before approving privileging requests for new technology. One of the first steps is to develop criteria for physician performance of the new privilege. Equally important is an analysis of the institution’s mission regarding this service, its ability to provide the technology, and whether there is trained staff to support this function. |
Sample request form for new technology | Too many organizations take a reactive instead of a proactive approach to new technology privileging. Many times, a physician attends a conference, hears about a new procedure or technology, and returns to the hospital excited to introduce this innovation. Medical staff leaders must be prepared for such privileging requests. |
