External Peer Performance Evaluations: Did You Know?

Did You Know?.... that nearly 30% of CIMRO’s reviews are External Peer Performance Evaluations (EPPEs)? EPPEs are an affordable external review option.
 


​
Suitable for:
​

• Ongoing ROUTINE assessments and performance analysis for a single practitioner or multiple practitioners of a department.

NOT suitable for:

• Records over 100 pages.
• Custom questions for the peer reviewer.
• Comments, narrative, or detailed responses from the peer reviewer.
• A known or strong suspicion of a quality concern.
• Neurosurgery and mortality reviews.

What you can expect:

• Use of a standard review questionnaire and succinct responses from the peer reviewer – answers will be yes, no, or n/a only.
• An overall rating will be provided for each record reviewed.
• An aggregate report of variances allowing for identification of practice patterns or areas of concern.
• If additional detail is desired upon receipt of the EPPE report, clients may request a teleconference with the peer reviewer billed at the hourly rate or request an additional review priced according to the Agreement for Review Services.
