Case Review has historically and continues to be a main stay of performance evaluation. By its nature of individuals rating other individual's performance, it has always carried the burden of a degree of subjectivity. This has lead, in many cases, to a system described as punitive and unfair. In extreme cases, there are accusations of sham peer review that often fall into litigation. This talk will be composed of two parts. The first and major section will discuss best practice steps in establishing a fair and effective case review process. These steps include case identification, triaging, summary of issues, initial review, response of involved practitioner and case adjudication. This will also go into roles and responsibilities of the various participants including reporting methods.
