Rules for how close a MD has to be to the hospital when on call

Posted by [email protected] on May. 26, 2021  /    Subscribe 2

Our MEC is looking at our current rules for how close a MD has to be to the hospital when on call.  We would appreciate knowing how you handle this at your facility.

• How close are they required to be to the hospital (this could be their home or hotel)?
• How long do they have to respond by phone?
• How long do they have to arrive in person?
• Do you different rules by department?

Current Requirements for Unassigned ED Call

Posted by [email protected] on May. 10, 2021  /    Subscribe 1

What are your current requirements for participation in unassigned ED call?  Current requirements for response time (to the ED or to a private patient when called)?  Do you require members to live/practice within a certain distance of the facility?  Have your guidelines relative to these questions changed recently or are changes being considered?

What software are you using and what different products are being used for Peer Review, Credentialing, FPPE, and OPPE?
