Contest winner: Physician report card

Congratulations to our May contest winner, Iracema Navarro, medical staff coordinator at Promise Hospital, San Diego! This sample policy of the physician report card won Iracema and a colleague free registration to The Greeley Medical Staff Institute Symposium.

Iracema developed this physician report card form in 2007 when Promise Hospital was devising a way to comply with The Joint Commission’s requirement for ongoing professional practice (OPPE) evaluations.

Iracema talks about the evolution of the physician report card as it expanded to include more items to review: “This form works well for most of the medical staff. It was our medical staff leadership that decided to give it the name of report card. It is an Excel worksheet. My medicine/surgery workbook, for example, contains a worksheet for each practitioner. We sometimes do a trend sheet with averages by specialty.”
