Professional Standing
Annual Registration is a yearly, online application. Diplomates must provide attestation of professional standing by answering a series of credentialing questions. The credentialing process will indicate whether a Diplomate has an unrestricted dental and/or medical license. It will also indicate whether a Diplomate maintains continuous hospital privileges that permit them to perform core procedures in oral and maxillofacial surgery. A Plan of Transfer option is also available to satisfy the requirement.
Hospital Privileges
A hospital is an institution primarily engaged in providing, by or under the supervision of physicians, in patient diagnostic and therapeutic services or rehabilitation services; and is accredited by the Joint Commission or approved by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. Privileges at an ambulatory surgery center are acceptable; if it is associated with a hospital where the Diplomate maintains surgical privileges or completes a written annual Plan of Transfer to a surgeon that has hospital privileges and has been signed by the accepting surgeon.
