Quality assurance/peer review for recredentialing/relicensure in New York State.
In consultation with the State Health Department, the New York State Society of Anesthesiologists has developed a Model Program of Quality Assurance/Peer Review for Recredentialing/Relicensure. The Model Program was developed to provide a standardized peer review process through which anesthesiologists practicing in New York State can be recredentialed and relicensed when recredentialing becomes a requirement for relicensure of New York State physicians. The program of recredentialing and relicensure is part of the agenda of the Governor's office, the State Health Department, and the State Education Department to improve the quality of healthcare in New York State through (1) identifying physicians whose quality of care is below reasonable thresholds, (2) assuring that these physicians receive appropriate remedial education or training, and (3) generally raising the quality of healthcare provided by all physicians practicing in New York State.
