Overview: Hospitals must file a National Practitioner Data Bank report on any physician's

surrender of privileges if an investigation is underway. This has always been a Data Bank

reporting requirement, intended to discourage plea bargains which allowed physicians to avoid

being reported if they agreed to waive hearing rights.

Under the new Guidebook, expanded descriptions of "investigation" and "surrender" stretch what

is to be considered a reportable surrender of privileges.

OPPE and FPPE and other peer review can be affected, as are physicians ability to make practice

decisions without inadvertently tripping Data Bank reporting triggers. Medical staff bylaws and

policies need to be reworked under the new Data Bank Guidebook.

Why should you Attend: Are you aware of the revisions to the National Practitioner Data Bank

Guidebook? New and surprising government interpretations of the regulatory scheme have been

recently published. Most medical staff policies and bylaws in hospitals today do not reflect

these changes. Legal protections for medical staff leaders and hospitals could be lost.

Physicians will be surprised by reports generated under the new Guidebook.
