This presentation seeks to provide hospitals, medical staffs, and health care providers with practical pointers for efficiently drafting clear and accurate records that incorporate confidentiality protections and legal risk reduction measures.

This webinar will give the audience practical tips on:

  • Drafting medical staff committee meeting minutes;
  • Documenting internal investigations;

  • Evidence Code Section 1157 protections of medical staff records.
