the I as I five years According to Health Board Secretariat worker Joy the sat for a total of 11 days from January 1982 when the current board was established until July 19fl7 It may sound like few but many of these cases take a number of days Joy Franklin said Of the 30 cases heard the gave wr Ken settlements and were adjourned before hoard heard the full case Joshua the counsel for Georgetown and District Memorial Hospital said he suspects a large majority of the cases have come to the HAB in the last three to four years Doctors are be com more he said Mr added that many hospitals are now facing a Catch situation On the one hand you have cases in civil courts and malpractice suits saying that hospitals are responsible lor the quality and competence doc tors are ding he said At the same lime they have to ensure the safety of the community and to res pond to that But as hospitals try to respond to Ihe community are by appeals Mr said Justice Grange low famous for his Investigation Into the Hospital for Sick Children found a need to establish clearer guidelines granting doctors privileges hospitals Mr said Joshua said the original purpose of the in the early 1970s was to deal with new applicants There was a sense that some doc tors were being discriminated against he said Hospitals had to come up with cogent reasons to deny access to doctors Judge Kenneth Langdon who chaired the annual meeting of Georgetown June said In his speech that OHA Hospital Association figures In that per cent of Ontario hospitals annually restrict privileges of physicians that number t surprise me said OHA Director of Medical Staff Affaire Scopa Many of those doctors would be suspended Tor having Incomplete charts A week long search by the OHA records department turned up figures which had been distributed at an OHA conference in OHA Communications general manager Peter Wood said the figures belong to a report that does not indicate where the information came from The report

100 to 199 beds and per cent of hospitals with fewer than SO beds restricted physicians privileges lhat year Just over per cent of hospitals with to beds restricted the privileges of their physicians in the report says This figure would include Georgetown and District Memorial Hospital which has beds Peter Wood that the table does not break down Ihe numbers to distinguish between temporary suspensions for I incomplete charts and full revocations for other reasons Those figures may look horrcn dous on Ihe surface Peter Wood said But In tact they arc not Many of them would be technical restrictions The Public Hospitals Act dictates lhat physicians must submit com charts of a patient within hours of discharge Mr Wood said mosl hospitals wilt restrict a doc tor a privileges temporarily until his records are brought up to dale The number of physicians sub jected to restrictions for other reasons would be considerably lower he added Physicians privileges may be restricted or suspended for reasons which Include Incomplete charts or contravening the rules of the hospital In which they practise The College of Physicians and Surgeons ihe licensing body for doctors in On
