Recruiting - Emergency Staff Credentials

The credentialing process employed by Midwest emergency Associates addresses the following key points:

  • Each applicant will be board certified or board-prepared in Emergency Medicine.
  • Each applicant's professional qualifications and background will be thoroughly reviewed and verified.
  • Career gaps and adverse information will be examined and clarified.
  • Each applicant must have a current license in good standing to practice medicine in the state in which you practice as well as a Federal DEA number.
  • Each applicant will be interviewed by the Medical Director.
  • Continuing Medical Education requirements by the state of Illinois and the American College of Emergency Physicians will be met.

Only upon satisfactory review of the above will an applicant be recommended to the Hospital's credentialing committee.

Once a physician is appointed to the Medical Staff, the re-credentialing process will occur in accordance with the Medical Staff bylaws. Departmental performance evaluations will be performed on an annual basis by the Director of Emergency Medicine based upon Quality Assurance and Risk Management evaluations.
