Abstract
This article seeks to challenge the reader to question whether our practitioner credentialing systems can really keep our patients safe, protect them from harm, and at the same time, save us from ourselves. Hospitals have the duty to hire and retain qualified, competent, and safe clinicians as members of its medical, employed, and affiliated staff. The process is clearly designed to ferret out those practitioners whose backgrounds cannot be fully and accurately verified and substantiated.
