NOTICE OF DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE ACT

In accordance with the Drug Free Workplace Act of 1988, SCIHP has adopted a Drug-Free and Alcohol-Free Workplace Policy and Procedure. It is unlawful for any employee to manufacture, distribute, dispense, possess or use a controlled substance in the workplace. In addition, SCIHP must be notified within five (5) calendar days of any criminal drug statute conviction for a violation occurring in the workplace. Employees who are suspected of violating SCIHP's Drug-Free and Alcohol-Free Policy may be required to submit to an inspection of their person, vehicle or personal property.

Provider Credentialing

It is the responsibility of the SCIHP Board of Directors to ensure that the providers that we employ are licensed and eligible to practice. SCIHP has a credentialing review process that verifies the identity, training, experience, and competency of an individual. Through assessment and validation of a provider’s qualifications to provide patient care services, the appropriate department director provides recommendations to the Credentialing Committee and the governing body regarding appointment and the scope of clinical privileges to be granted to the individual. Appointment is determined on evaluation of the individual’s current license, training, experience, and current competence and ability to perform privileges requested. The review process for employee membership and privileges are detailed, specific and outlined in SCIHP credentialing and privileging policies and procedures.
