How Old is Too Old to Practice Medicine? Credentialing Aging Physicians
OVERVIEW
Practicing medicine is not like other jobs that have a tradition of retirement at age 65.
Physician shortages fuel support for physicians seeking to continue their
careers indefinitely. Patient safety is paramount, but is it served by applying
age restrictions on medical staff membership and clinical privileges?
If so, what is the magic number?
WHY
SHOULD YOU ATTEND
- Can
medical staffs and hospitals place restrictions on physicians based on
age?
- Should
hospitals and medical staffs decide a retirement age for medical staff
membership?
- Can
physicians sue, alleging discrimination and civil rights violations?
Attend the webinar to get answers to many such
vital questions.

LEARNING
OBJECTIVES
Age
discrimination must be avoided while patient safety must be protected.
Physicians are human but all humans do not cease to be functional at the same
or any particular age. Credentialing processes must integrate age as part of
competency assessment and need to better analyze the retirement age for medical
staff membership.
