Physician Peer Review Triggers

Situations And Circumstances That Can Trigger FPPEs

Please call (888) 899-1406 to schedule a free consultation to talk about how we can conduct physician peer reviews for your organization. We will also be happy to show you a redacted sample of one of our reports.

At MRN, we provide physician peer reviews for all types of healthcare organizations, including hospitals, clinics, and private practices. The point of peer reviews – whether they’re ongoing reviews or focused reviews – is to ensure that physicians are doing their best work and that patients are receiving the best care.

Common Physician Peer Review Triggers
While a wide range of factors can lead to a Focused Professional Practice Evaluation (FPPE), in our experience, these are the most common physician peer review triggers:

  • adverse events
  • poor outcomes
  • deviations in the standard of care (or the perception of substandard care)
  • complaints from patients
  • complaints from other healthcare professionals
  • patient safety issues
  • inordinately long patient stays
  • post-procedure infections
  • unusual occurrence reports
  • non-compliance with clinical guidelines or protocols
  • evaluations of whether to renew, revise, or revoke a physician’s privileges

Cost-Effective Physician Peer Reviews
We take pride in conducting physician peer reviews that meet the needs of the organization and are comprehensive, fair, and objective. For each peer review, we find the right physician expert that’s best suited to evaluate the case. All of our physician reviewers are board-certified, in active clinical practice, and independent of MRN. Working closely with the physician reviewers, our experienced legal nurse consultants write the reports. This ensures that the peer reviews are completed on time and are cost-effective.
