Changes to YNHH Medical Staff Bylaws
The YNHH Medical Executive Committee has proposed changes to board recertification requirements, consult responsibilities in ambulatory settings, and medical staff officer composition. Active medical staff members can submit feedback through April 26.

New Consult Workflow
A new workflow now reminds primary teams when a consulted physician requests a re-consult before discharge. Add .CONSULTSIGNOFF to your preferred consultant template or use the new System Consult Progress Note to activate the workflow. Please incorporate this dotphrase into all consult progress notes and use it consistently.
