REVIEW PANEL COMPOSITION
The panel was composed of two co-chairs with expertise in the provincial privileging dictionaries and 3 subject matter experts from one health authority.
RECORD OF REVIEW PANEL DECISIONS AND CRITERIA IDENTIFIED:
Below are decisions made by the review panel and/or criteria identified by the panel to guide discussion of clinical practice and standards.
1. Recommended current experience The panel decided to revise the recommended current experience from within the last 12 months to 24 months.
2. Selectable non-core advanced endoscopic techniques The panel decided to make the list of non-core advanced endoscopic techniques procedures as selectable
3. Age for telephone consultation raised from 16 to 17 years The panel decoded in the case of patients under the age of 17 years telephone consultation with a pediatric gastroenterologist is recommended before beginning invasive investigations and management should normally be in conjunction with a pediatric gastroenterologist.
4. New non-core advanced procedure added – Capsule Endoscopy The panel added a new non-core advanced procedure for Capsule Endoscopy
5. Non-core ERCP volumes to remain at 75 The panel decided to leave current experience and renewal volume for ERCP at 75
procedures. The group recognized that adults GIs with this skill and maintenance of competence will continue to do the procedure for pediatric gastroenterologists.

Name:
Effective from: ______/______/________to______/______/________
❑ Initial privileges (initial appointment)
❑ Renewal of privileges (reappointment)
All new applicants must meet the following requirements as approved by the governing body,
effective: ______/______/________
Instructions:
Applicant: Check the “Requested” box for each privilege requested. Applicants are
responsible for producing required documentation to allow for a proper evaluation of current
skill, current clinical activity, and other qualifications and for resolving any doubts related to
qualifications for requested privileges. Please provide this supporting information by
uploading the appropriate documents
Medical/Clinical leaders: Check the appropriate box for recommendation on the last page
of this form and include your recommendation for any required evaluation. If recommended
with conditions or not recommended, provide the condition or explanation on the last page
of this form.
Current experience: Current experience thresholds suggested in this document were
developed by practitioners in the field, and are not intended as a barrier to practice or to
service delivery. They are not intended as rigid cutoffs, below which clinical privileges must
be restricted or removed. Instead, medical/clinical leaders are encouraged to initiate
discussions with those practitioners who are close to or below the thresholds, to ensure that
mechanisms are in place to ensure adequate practitioner experience and patient outcomes.
Other requirements: Note that even if applicants meet skill or experience requirements,
each site will determine if the requested privilege can be supported at that site. Privileges
granted may only be exercised at the site(s) and/or setting(s) that have sufficient space,
equipment, staffing, and other resources required to support the privilege.
This document is focused on defining qualifications related to training and current
experience to exercise clinical privileges. The applicant must also adhere to any
additional organizational, regulatory, or accreditation requirements that the
organization is obligated to meet.
Context: The care of patients presenting with complex problems or uncommon diseases
requires access to multidisciplinary groups, experienced teams and institutions with the
necessary subspecialties and infrastructure for appropriate care.

Grandparenting: Practitioners holding privileges prior to implementation of the
dictionary will continue to hold those privileges as long as they meet current
experience and quality requirements
Continuous Professional Development (CPD): Where suggested in this document, CPD
requirements reflect those professional development activities which are eligible for:
1. credit under the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada’s
(Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program;
2. the College of Family Physicians of Canada Mainpro+;
3. those professional development activities held in foreign jurisdictions which would be
eligible under the MOC/Mainpro program if held in Canada; or
4. equivalent CPD or Quality Assurance activities for other practitioners.
Planned vs. Unplanned (Emergency) Care: The scope of privileges granted to any
individual practitioner is based on considerations of patient care under “normal
circumstances.” In the setting of risk to life or limb, the rules of privilege are not meant to
constrain practitioners from acting in the best interest of a patient.
Note: The dictionary will be reviewed over time to ensure it is reflective of current practices,
procedures and technologies.
Core privilege: Types of activities a recent graduate of the discipline can reasonably be
expected to perform at a specific facility. Under core privileges in this dictionary, if there is a
procedure you wish to NOT perform please type into the Comments field.
Non-core privilege: Types of activities that require further training, experience and
demonstrated skill. Non-core privileges are requested in addition to requesting core.
Individuals requesting these privileges should meet the specific threshold criteria associated
to such non-core privileges.
Additional privilege: An additional privilege is any privilege that is not included in the core,
non-core, or context-specific privileges dictionary for your discipline. Additional privileges
already listed in this document were previously requested by others who practice in your
discipline; they may or may not be relevant to you.
Restricted procedures: Some dictionaries have procedures identified by the Ministry of
Health as [DESIGNATED A RESTRICTED SERVICE BY THE MEDICAL SERVICES
COMMISSION]. Privileges identified as restricted procedures may be flagged in this
document. Where it appears, the restricted procedures flag is for administrative tracking only,
and has no impact on clinical content.
