Quick Tip

Do you have to run a National Practitioner Data Bank query for honorary staff members at reappointment?

Todd Sagin, MD, JD: They are staff member but have no privileges. This is an opportunity to get familiar with NPDB Guidebook. The NPDB Guidebook states that regardless of whether someone holds privileges if they hold medical staff membership, must query NPDB every two years.

Heard and seen in Las Vegas: Day Three

Here are some highlights from Day 3 of the CRC Symposium!

"We cross-trained credentialing specialists and gave them the same job description so we can use them where we need them. It might be slow in initial appointments, and we need more resources in reappointments."

- Leslie Cox, BS, MHA, CPMM, CPCS, discusses improving CVO performance.

 

"What does traditional medical training have to do with being a successful medical staff leader? I would argue not a lot."

- John McDonald, MD, MSHM, CMQ, discusses the type of training medical staff leaders really should have to be effective.
