The month ahead

The arrival of March means one thing: Spring isn’t far away, even for those of us who are currently in the (very wide) Snow Belt. The Credentialing Resource Center is looking forward to our own version of “March madness,” sans basketball. Here are some highlights of the upcoming month:

•  The CRC website redesign is going live in March. Check back to see the new, more useful, information-rich site, and let us know what you think.
• On March 12-13, the Credentialing Resource Center team will be in Las Vegas for the 2015 edition of the CRC Symposium. This promises to be a deep dive on the vital aspects of credentialing and medical staff leadership. If you haven’t registered yet, better do so!
• We’re putting the final touches on the 2015 MSP Salary Survey. It will be similar to the 2014 edition, but we’ve updated some of the questions and will offer participants the chance to win one of two credentialing/medical staff leadership products. The survey will go live March 16.
• The next edition of Credentialing Resource Center Journal will hit the CRC website and subscribers’ inboxes next week. On the roster: The MSP ramifications of the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact, one hospital’s experiences with FPPE, and more.

I hope to see you in Las Vegas, or hear from you via the MSP Salary Survey or feedback about our website. Happy March!
