Inspections subcommittee updates hospital checklist, adds hyperlinks and third‑party resources
Summary
The inspections subcommittee reported revisions to the hospital standard self‑evaluation checklist to align objectives with current law, add hyperlinks to code sections, remove items not supported by law, and incorporate third‑party resources; no formal vote was taken.
The inspections subcommittee told the Medical Device Committee it is revising the hospital standard self‑evaluation checklist to align it with current law, remove objectives not supported by statute, include hyperlinks to applicable code sections, and add third‑party resources such as radiologic health inspection information.
Committee members said the checklist, originally published in August 2014 and last updated in February 2017, contains 42 items and will be reorganized so objectives map directly to current legal requirements. The subcommittee also flagged multiple statutes and regulations that the committee may recommend creating, amending, or repealing to close loopholes and remove redundant or outdated rules.
The subcommittee reported that the mobile inspection application launched in November 2024 and has streamlined the inspection process for inspectors, premises managing licensees, premises staff, and the board. The subcommittee will continue reviewing compliance examples and update the checklist for board consideration at future meetings. No formal action or vote was recorded on this item.
