Re: IDPH Competency Plan/CME hours
According to IDPH rules
& regulations for Trauma Centers, a professional staff competency plan
needs to be maintained for Trauma Surgeons and Emergency Medicine Physicians
treating trauma patients. I am putting together
and maintaining this plan. Part of the
requirements for this competency plan is successful completion of trauma-related
CME continuing education. This includes 20 hours every 2 years for
Trauma Surgeons, and 10 hours every 1 year for Emergency Medicine Physicians.
Enclosed you will find a
letter to sign. This letter indicates
that you have the required trauma CME hours.
Please sign the letter, and return it to me. I will be sending out a new letter for you to
sign every year for Emergency Medicine Physicians, and every two years for
Trauma Surgeons. It will be your
responsibility to prove the CME hours if requested by IDPH. Signing the letter will not get you
out of producing your hours if requested.
I have also enclosed a copy
of the IDPH guidelines for the competency plan.
If you would like to view the plan, or see how I am tracking specific
outcome measurements, I would be happy to go over the entire plan with
you.
If you have any other
questions, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you for your cooperation in this important matter.
