In a recent blog post, The Greeley Company discusses "laundry list" privileging, OPPE and FPPE.
If you are still using “laundry list” privileging as opposed to core privileging, you are likely struggling to perform meaningful OPPE and FPPE. If a laundry list for a typical specialist includes 60-80 privileges, how do you determine current competence for each?
In order to prove current competence, you need data. And performance on only a small number of privileges can be evaluated by the types of data typically collected, such as core measure compliance and Apgar scores. Other measures, such as patient satisfaction, medical records completion, blood usage, and drug usage, do not provide privilege-specific competence measurement for individual privileges on the list. That leaves you with individual case reviews as the primary mechanism for assessing competence for most privileges on the list
