Fear of discovery: How PSOs provide a secure environment for safety work

The federal Patient Safety and Quality Improvement Act was created in 2005 and established a national patient safety database and a system of Patient Safety Organizations (PSOs) in the US. Although PSOs have existed for more than 15 years, healthcare organisations still struggle to identify the best reporting structure and how to most effectively utilise protections in relation to patient safety work.

In this ECRI webinar, Partner and Owner of Bolin Law Group, Andrew Bolin, will discuss:

  • The establishment of a Patient Safety Evaluation System and how it relates to PSOs
  • The differences between state protections and federal protections
  • How to work with surveyors who request information protected under the Act

The webinar will take place at 13:00 ET (18:00 BST)
