Put your OPPE chops to the test
Conducting OPPE has been a requirement for accreditation by The Joint Commission since 2008 and recently became a stipulation of HFAP accreditation. Despite its prevalence, the OPPE process can present a number of challenges for MSPs, practitioners, and medical staff leaders operating in today’s variable healthcare climate. Physicians may believe the evaluations are of little value, while medical staff and quality personnel sometimes find themselves struggling to complete one six-month OPPE cycle when the subsequent one has already ended.
Although OPPE is not an easy task to accomplish, a strong foundation in the underlying principles and current expectations can prime those involved in the process for success. Take today’s free quiz to evaluate and strengthen your mastery of the OPPE fundamentals.
