Diversity, equity, and inclusion are often included as goals in hospital mission statements. Failure to address DEI in medical staff documents creates a disconnect.
Medical staff policies and procedures that do not correct for bias make for bigger problems than mere bad optics. Bad faith credentialing loses opportunities for hospitals, harms overall staff morale, and jeopardizes both physicians' reputations and patient care. Prejudiced peer review means huge damages in court.
This webinar will review basic medical staff processes that need to be corrected to comply with state and federal law and regulation, and Joint Commission accreditation standards.
