Privileging registered dietitians to comply with CMS regulations: Some state laws say no, citing LIP rules

Californian registered dietitians continue to seek privileges so that they can prescribe diet orders directly rather than ordering them through a physician. A nation-wide CMS regulation currently bans non-privileged practitioners from prescribing diet orders.

 


 
Questions credentials committees should ask themselves when reviewing a practitioner’s file

Credentials committees should cover important topics when reviewing applications such as reasons for gaps on a resume and how colleagues rated behavior.


 
Preapplications persist as screening tool despite increased eligibility criteria in main applications

Most medical staffs include competency criteria in applications, eliminating the need for preapplicaitons, yet these forms still hold value for some medical staffs.

Assessing the Competency of Low-Volume Practitioners:
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.
