1 College of American Pathologists Considerations for the Delineation of Pathology Clinical Privileges Edward W. Catalano Jr, MD; Stephen Gerard Ruby, MD, MBA; Michael L. Talbert, MD; Douglas G. Knapman, MBA; for the Members of the Practice Management Committee, College of American Pathologists Context. The Joint Commission (JC) established new medical staff privileging requirements effective January The new requirements include the development of ongoing professional practice evaluation (OPPE) and focused professional practice evaluation (FPPE) processes and incorporate the general competencies of patient care, medical knowledge, practice-based learning and improvement, interpersonal and communication skills, professionalism and systems-based practice jointly developed by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS). The College of American Pathologists makes resources available to assist members and their facilities in implementing the new requirements and improving patient care. Objectives. To review the general requirements for privileging and identify how they may apply to pathologists, to identify currently available activities and metrics that may be useful in addressing these requirements, and to present identified concepts, activities, and metrics for consideration by pathologists and hospitals for their adaptation into the policies and procedures that address the new JC physician privileging requirements. Design. Review available pathology privileging documentation that addressed the previous JC requirements, review the new requirements, and search for and review available and applicable resources, activities, and metrics. Results. Common pathology activities and metrics can be incorporated into the privileging processes. Current and new activities and metrics can be incorporated or developed to address the 6 ACGME/ABMS General Competencies. Conclusion. Each hospital has unique privileging and physician evaluation requirements. Providing concepts, activities, and metrics for pathologists and hospitals to consider in pathology privileging will help implement the OPPE and FPPE processes and meet medical staff privileging requirements. (Arch Pathol Lab Med. 2009;133: ) Hospitals have a responsibility to ensure that physicians on their medical staff who are practicing their profession have the appropriate training, skills, and competency to treat patients. Hospitals seek to place the patients interests first and to limit physicians professional treatment to their areas of competency. Hospitals do this through the concept of clinical privileges, which carefully delineate the scope of practice of each physician in the hospital. Such delineation of privileges is required by the Joint Commission (JC) and is overseen by the medical staff of each hospital. As of January 1, 2008, facilities accredited by the JC are required to meet new standards for privileging physicians at their facilities. The new standards require the use of more formal, detailed, evidence-based Accepted for publication December 4, From the Department of Pathology, Palmetto Richland Memorial Hospital, Columbia, South Carolina (Dr Catalano); the Department of Pathology, Palos Community Hospital, Palos Heights, Illinois (Dr Ruby); the Department of Pathology, University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma City (Dr Talbert); and Membership and Professional Development Division, College of American Pathologists, Northfield, Illinois (Mr Knapman).

To meet these standards, the JC now requires the development of both ongoing professional practice evaluation (OPPE) processes to evaluate physicians on an ongoing basis and focused professional practice evaluation (FPPE) processes for granting a physician initial privileges, granting of new privileges, and addressing concerns regarding existing privileges. After addressing general considerations and qualifications in the privileging of pathologists, we will describe these processes in more detail. The evaluation processes and delineation of pathology privileges are developed by the medical staff and are the responsibility of the hospital. The information contained herein is for background purposes only. The College of American Pathologists (CAP) does not make any specific recommendations, and each hospital, with assistance from its medical staff and pathology department, should make its own determination as to what is most appropriate for its specific circumstances. GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS The degree of complexity and specificity required for delineation of professional privileges is influenced by the size of the hospital and by the services and skills available. Although most physicians requesting privileges in anatomic or clinical pathology will be diplomates of the Arch Pathol Lab Med Vol 133, April 2009 Delineation of Pathology Clinical Privileges Catalano et al 613
2 American Board of Pathology, the granting of privileges should be based not solely on board certification but also on evidence of current licensure, education, experience, competence, and due consideration of any prior adverse licensing or credentialing decisions. Fellowship in the College of American Pathologists, membership in other scientific organizations, or the physician s rank or tenure are relevant only to the extent that they are indicative of education, experience, or competence. In most instances, the granting of privileges to hospital staff members in pathology will combine a specialty (pathology) and intraspecialty designation (anatomic pathology, clinical pathology, etc), coupled with specific authorization for the performance of any invasive patient procedure. Typically, hospital-based pathologists practice both anatomic and clinical pathology and are usually certified by or are qualified for examination by the American Board of Pathology (ABP). Pathologists certified by the ABP in clinical pathology or with equivalent qualifications are generally granted privileges in clinical pathology and all its subdisciplines, including immunohematology, blood banking, hematology, hematopathology, and clinical microbiology. Pathologists certified by the ABP in anatomic pathology or with equivalent qualifications are generally granted privileges in surgical pathology, autopsy pathology, cytopathology, molecular pathology, and associated ancillary studies. Pathologists qualified to perform invasive biopsy techniques (needle or surgical), chemotherapy, in vivo nuclear medicine, or other special diagnostic or therapeutic procedures should obtain approval from the medical staff on a procedure-specific basis. There are a number of methods used by facilities for delineation of specific medical staff privileges. This does not release each department within the hospital or the hospital staff from establishing its own specific regulations according to local need and professional resources available. In addition to the pathology-specific privileges, each pathologist should also have typical medical staff privileges necessary to carry out patient-care responsibilities such as those that allow consultation, the entry of data in patient charts, and the ordering of diagnostic studies. QUALIFICATIONS A hospital may establish a list of qualifications, based on recommendations of its medical staff and approval by its governing body, which pathologists must have to be eligible for pathology privileges at its facility. 1 Shown below is a sample set of qualifications: Minimum Formal Training. The pathologist graduated from a medical school in the United States or Canada accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, graduated from an osteopathic college of medicine accredited by the Bureau of Professional Education of the American Osteopathic Association, or graduated from a medical school outside the United States or Canada that is acceptable to the ABP. The pathologist is able to demonstrate successful completion of an anatomic and/or clinical pathology residency training program that is acceptable to the ABP. 2 Current Competency. The pathologist is able to demonstrate that within a time frame that supports current competence, he or she has maintained competency by being actively involved in the clinical practice of pathology, by participating in an accredited pathology residency or fellowship program, by peer review, or by other means deemed appropriate for the individual. The hospital may request documentation that the pathologist has recently competently performed the activities associated with the privileges he or she has requested. A pathologist who cannot meet this criterion should be considered for limited/ probationary privileges under supervision by a staff pathologist (ie, proctoring) until competence has been adequately demonstrated. Special Requests. Successful, documented completion of approved, recognized course(s), when such exists, or acceptable supervised training in residency, fellowship, or other acceptable experience CHANGES IN PRIVILEGING: OPPE AND FPPE As of January 1, 2008, the JC requires 2 new privileging processes. 1. The first process is titled Ongoing Professional Practice Evaluation. This process requires ongoing continuous evidence-based evaluation of each physician s performance. The process is to be designed for timely identification and resolution of potential problems and replaces the previous renewal process that evaluated physicians every other year. The OPPE must be a clearly defined process based on monitors recommended by individual departments and approved by the medical staff. The results of OPPE will be used to decide if current privileges should be continued, revoked, or limited The second process is titled Focused Professional Practice Evaluation. This process focuses on a specific detailed area(s) of a pathologist s performance and may be used to accomplish the following: Privilege new pathologists Grant new privileges for a pathologist already established at a facility Facilitate the resolution of a potential concern Initiate general quality improvement Initiate quality improvement for a specific privilege or physician need identified by the OPPE The FPPE must be clearly defined and consistently applied. The process must have criteria for conducting the monitoring process and methods for matching the monitoring to a specific privilege and for establishing duration of monitoring. Triggers that would indicate the need for focused monitoring or additional monitoring must also be clearly defined. 5 Interventions to resolve performance issues must be clearly delineated and consistently applied. 6 Both OPPE and FPPE are to address the 6 areas of general competency developed by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS). At this time the use of the 6 areas of competency for evaluating physicians is a relatively new and a developing concept. In developing or reevaluating current privileging standards, pathologists or facilities may want to check the ACGME Web site ( accessed October 31, 2008) for the latest information and tools regarding the 6 general competencies. The General Competencies section of this paper elaborates on this topic and identifies 614 Arch Pathol Lab Med Vol 133, April 2009 Delineation of Pathology Clinical Privileges Catalano et al
3 potential standards and evaluation options for each competency which may be applied to the practice of pathology. EVALUATION ALTERNATIVES Both OPPE and FPPE are evidence-based processes that imply the need for evaluation of a pathologist s performance. Pathologists may want to be proactive in working with their facilities and use, whenever possible, performance evaluation measures already in place. With pathologists long-standing and ongoing emphasis on quality assurance and improvement, a number of such measures are typically already in place. In addition, direct proctoring of specific or all activities can be a valuable evaluation tool for FPPE. Measures that apply to the performance of the pathology laboratory may be useful for evaluating pathologists in their role as laboratory medical directors. Example measures for OPPE and FPPE that may be useful to pathologists: Laboratory accreditation process Results from proficiency testing Results from correlation studies Inspection results including any noted deficiencies and documentation of corrective action Maintenance of certification activities Record review Checklist Global rating of performance 360-degree evaluations Portfolio Procedure and/or case logs Completion of self-assessment modules Continuing medical education Quality assurance and improvement activities Typical quality assurance activities Turnaround-time measurements Correlation of frozen-section diagnosis with final diagnosis Error rates Peer-review monitoring Discrepancy rates with other facility overreads Proficiency testing results Direct proctoring of specific or all activities Q-PROBES Q-TRACKS Laboratory management index program Maintenance of licensure activities Physician satisfaction survey results Patient satisfaction survey results, if appropriate For more information on maintenance of certification evaluation activities see Toolbox of Assessment Methods produced jointly by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education and the American Board of Medical Specialties at assess/asshome.asp (accessed October 31, 2008). GENERAL COMPETENCIES This section reviews the general competencies as defined on February 13, 2007, and identifies standards and evaluation options for each competency as may be applied to the practice of pathology. This list of options is not inclusive but is provided as background information to assist pathologists in developing, with their facilities, the OPPE and FPPE criteria and processes for pathology privileging. Each facility should establish its own appropriate evaluation methods and may wish to investigate the availability of other options. Not all options listed will be reasonable for all facilities. 1.
