Healthcare facilities
State law requires hospitals and other health care organizations to make a report to the Board when they act to limit, suspend or revoke a licensee’s clinical privileges for cause. Specifically, healthcare facilities are required to report, within 30 days of the effective date of the action, the following:
- A summary revocation, summary suspension, or summary limitation of privileges, regardless of whether the action has been finally determined.
- A revocation, suspension, or limitation of privileges that has been finally determined by the governing body of the institution.
- A resignation from practice or voluntary reduction of privileges, if the resignation is made under threat of investigation/disciplinary action or pending investigation/disciplinary action.
Healthcare facilities are NOT required to report:
- The suspension or limitation of a physician’s privileges for failure to timely complete medical records.
- A resignation from practice due solely to the physician’s completion of a medical residency, internship, or fellowship.
