Abstract

Hospital, state licensing boards, and managed care organizations query the National Practitioner Data Bank to receive malpractice payment and adverse licensure or clinical privileges reports concerning licensed health care practitioners. The results of a national survey of queriers strongly suggest that Data Bank reports impart valuable information that affects licensing and credentialing decisions. Thus, the Data Bank is fulfilling the role lawmakers intended in improving the quality of health care.
