What does it mean when a physician is a member of a hospital's medical staff?
Once a physician chooses a location in which to set up a practice, he or she usually will apply to become a member of the medical staff of a nearby hospital, in the event a patient needs hospital care. Only physicians who are on a hospital's medical staff can admit and treat patients there. Joining a hospital's medical staff involves a credentialing process in which a physician's education, training, and experience are examined to ensure that certain standards are met.
The physicians who join our medical staff also have the opportunity to participate in the Eastern Connecticut Physician Hospital Organization (ECPHO). The role of the ECPHO is to improve the efficiency of the delivery of medical care and support a tighter and stronger medical community for residents of eastern Connecticut.
