Temporary/Emergency Privileges

Posted by Katie Sellers, CPMSM, CPCS on Sep. 1, 2022  /     1

I have always understood that if temporary privileges are granted for an urgent patient care need and the minimum bylaws criteria as meet per the bylaws. The file still needs to be completed in its entirety even if the shift has always been completed and the provider will never cover again. Is this what you do at your facility? Any response is much appreciated.

Outpatient Privileging

Posted by Jackie Doherty, CPMSM, CPCS on Aug. 12, 2022  /     1

For hospitals with hospital owned outpatient clinics -- are you required to privilege your providers at the parent site (hospital) with "outpatient only" privileges even if the clinic is functioning under a different TIN number? If so, is there standards/regulatory language you can share with me that stipulates this? The great debate we are having is whether those working in an outpatient setting should be clinically privileged through the hospital and should be required to undergo FPPE/OPPE. TIA!
