Reappointment
Fairview System Credentialing Office
What is reappointment?
- Reappointment is the process of re-evaluating a practitioner’s current competency after they have been appointed to the medical staff or professional staff at a Fairview entity.
- Fairview System Credentialing Office Reappointment Staff will send each practitioner a reappointment packet approximately five months prior to their reappointment expiration.
- Practitioners need to complete the reappointment form, checking whether the demographic information currently in our database is correct and completing new disclosure questions.
- Practitioners also must complete a new privilege form indicating the privileges they want to perform upon reappointment. Documentation required for any requested privileges must be submitted with the reappointment packet.
- Fairview System Credentialing Reappointment Staff processes each practitioner’s reappointment paperwork upon receipt.
- Completed reappointments are sent to the Fairview entity(ies) Medical Staff Office for review and approval by the Board of Directors prior to the practitioner's reappointment expiration.
- A practitioner’s reappointment must be approved by the Fairview entity(ies) Board of Directors prior to expiration of the initial appointment or previous reappointment.
- Fairview reappoints each practitioner via a schedule based on first letter of last name. Some practitioners may be reappointed "out of sync" depending on their initial approval date in relation to the current reappointment schedule.
- Approval of both initial appointments and reappointments are for 24 months. The Joint Commission hospital accreditation standards require all practitioners complete a reappointment process every 24 months.
