Please call (888) 899-1406 to schedule a free consultation to talk about how we can conduct OPPE reviews for your organization. We will also be happy to show you a redacted sample of one of our OPPE review reports.
OPPE reviews (Ongoing Professional Practice Evaluations) can play an important role in determining whether healthcare and medical services are being delivered consistently by all physicians throughout an organization. OPPE reviews also can help prevent medical errors, ensure patient safety, and minimize liability exposure for hospitals, clinics, and private practices. In addition, if OPPE reviews are conducted properly, they can ensure that physicians are treated fairly, by being held to the same standards.
Confidential And Objective OPPE Reviews
At MRN, over the years, we’ve conducted hundreds of physician peer reviews, including OPPE reviews for hospitals and health organizations of all sizes. We can help you with the entire peer review process, including designing a form that meets the needs of your organization.
For your OPPE reviews, we’ll secure board-certified physicians (in active clinical practice) who not only have the right specialties, but also have experience in similar practice settings.
What’s Included In An OPPE Review
For an OPPE review, we can either use a form and process that have been designed by your organization, or we can help you create those. In general, however, OPPE reviews typically include:
- identification and retention of the appropriate expert reviewer
- retrieval and examination of medical records
- obtaining analysis and conclusions from the physician reviewer through an interview
- recommendations for actions (or non-actions) to be taken in regards to the physician being reviewed
- potentially recommending changes in protocols and/or procedures for the organization
