LG Health Medical Staff Credentialing
All Medical & Dental Staff members who use e-Health for inpatient functions will be required to take a two-hour e-Health refresher course as part of the re-credentialing process. This includes providers who round or operate at Lancaster General Hospital, Women & Babies Hospital and all LG Health surgical areas, including the Suburban Pavilion.
The course will focus on:
-
Preventing errors and ensuring patient safety/improving quality
-
Level-setting documentation and ordering processes
-
Re-emphasizing clinical documentation standards
-
Improving user efficiency and satisfaction
Providers have received email instructions on how to sign up for the courses, which will be offered from July to September. Providers who are being re-credentialed in 2016 (all medicine and medicine specialties, family medicine and pediatrics) must attend the course by Oct. 1. Providers who are due for re-credentialing in 2017 will receive more information next year.
Please contact Dr. Jeffrey L. Martin, jdmartin@lghealth.org, with any questions.
