Performance-Based Assessment of Radiology Faculty: A Practical Plan to Promote Improvement and Meet JCAHO Standards

¹ Both authors: Department of Radiology, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, 3333 Burnet Ave, Cincinnati, OH 45229-3039.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE. The objective of this article is to describe the process of implementing a program for performance-based assessment of clinical faculty.

CONCLUSION. A performance-based assessment of clinical faculty program facilitated quality improvements in our department, improved communication concerning our reappointment process, and was well received by faculty. The presence of measures on a scorecard stresses what is important for clinical care and facilitates process improvement in these areas. Having practitioner-specific data compiled in an organized fashion helps meet the standards of the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO).
