How are privilege forms developed?
• Physicians within each specialty develop the system-wide privilege forms. For example, a group of family medicine physicians review and make recommendations on the Family Medicine privilege form, cardiologists review and make recommendations on the Cardiac Services form, etc. • At Fairview, all privilege form revisions are reviewed by a task force of specialty physicians from each entity in the system. Each entity’s Credentials Committee then reviews the proposed revisions and forwards recommendations to the System Credentialing Policy Committee, which approves all privilege forms for the Fairview system. • See Fairview’s Privileging Principles for more information.
