Is peer review a waste of time?

If there are members of your medical staff who think so, there’s probably no way to change their minds. Nevertheless, peer review is a requirement because it can stop or pre-empt bad care and save patient lives—and it’s not going away. If your organization is struggling with it, tune in to Peer Review: Seven Challenges and Realistic Solutions, a January 28 webcast featuring Robert Marder, MD, and Mark Smith, MD, who will take on some of the thorniest aspects of the process and answer your questions.

If the peer review process is a challenge, finding peer review information on the Credentialing Resource Center website shouldn’t be. I’m excited to report that the redesigned CRC website will launch in a few weeks, and you can expect simpler delivery of CRC’s valuable content where you need it most—front and center! Watch this space and the CRC blog for additional information.

Thanks for reading!
