Title: 

• National Practitioner Data Bank: A Deeper Dive into Reporting Adverse Actions

Speaker(s): 

• David Loewenstein

Description: 

     Hospitals and other health care entities must report professional review actions against a physician or
     dentist when:

          - the action adversely affects clinical privileges for a period of more than 30 days and

          - it is based on the practitioner's professional competence or conduct that adversely affects or could
            adversely affect the health or welfare of a patient 

     The reporting requirement includes the acceptance of the surrender of clinical privileges or any restriction of
     such privileges, while the physician or dentist is under investigation or in return for not conducting such
     an investigation. 

     This NPDB presentation will take a deep dive into reportability by answering the following key questions:

          - When does a routine inquiry into a practitioner become a professional review activity (investigation)?

         - When are restrictions of privileges during an ongoing investigation reportable? 

          - How does a professional review activity become a professional review action for reporting purposes?

          - What factors distinguish a reportable professional review action from a non-reportable action?
