Credentialing - Expedited MEC Function
Publish | January 01, 0001
As part of the expedited credentialing process, can the responsibilities of the  Medical Executive Committee (MEC) be delegated to the chairman of the committee?

No. There is no expediting or delegation of the responsibilities of the MEC. The expedited credential process outlined in the standards relates only to the governing body function, and allows the governing body to appoint a committee of two or more members of the governing body to review and approve applications between regularly scheduled governing body meetings
