Health Care Professionals. Patient mobility requires that patients be reassured that the health professional who is treating them meets accepted standards. There is an implicit assumption, under the principle of mutual recognition, that a physician who is registered in one Member state meets the standards that are in place in all others. Yet it is already clear from research on revalidation (the process of requiring physicians to demonstrate formally that they have up to date skills and knowledge) that procedures vary widely across EU countries. Patient mobility also requires that patients who are unfortunate enough to suffer medical errors have a means of redress. This may be through a variety of mechanisms, from tort litigation to no-fault compensation schemes. The objectives of the Work Package were: • To undertake a mapping exercise to identify Europe-wide medical professional bodies engaged in the development of guidelines and standards; • To describe the procedures for maintaining professional standards in each Member State and to assess the criteria used in disciplinary measures taken against physicians; • To describe the scope of practice, skills and experience of designated specialists in EU Member States; and • To describe the mechanisms for redress (legal and administrative) in the event of medical errors in each Member State and determine the extent to which they are compatible.
Health Care Professionals. Professional mobility of doctors within Europe has increased in recent years, stimulated by EU enlargement and aided by the EU Directive on the mutual recognition of Professional Qualifications (2005/36/EC) which simplified the process for doctors to practice in other member states. However, this Directive assumes that all doctors sharing the same qualifications also share the same competencies and meet the same professional standards, yet the diversity in training and registration procedures suggest that this is unlikely to be so. This work package addresses the regulation and scope of practice of health professionals working in the EU, pertaining to the issue of professional mobility and the EU Directive on Professional Qualifications. The outputs of the project fall into three main themes, linked to the objectives of the work package: clinical guidelines; regulatory procedures and processes; and scope of practice of medical specialists. Clinical guidelines Our research undertook a mapping exercise of clinical guidelines use and development across Member States, as well as a systematic review on the effectiveness of clinical guideline development in Europe for the management of chronic diseases. We found that most EU countries have an established national, regional or local clinical guideline programme, and a substantial proportion have developed guidelines on the prevention and management of chronic diseases. Several countries have mechanisms in place to ensure the quality of scientific evidence used for the development of guidelines is high and that the process is consistent and transparent. Others are only now taking an interest in guideline development and are taking the first steps towards establishing ways of implementing them. The majority of countries have no legal basis for the development of guidelines and those that have well established systems mostly implement them on a voluntary basis. The process of guideline development varies in its degrees of decentralisation across countries with many different types of organisations taking on this responsibility. There is general acceptance of the value of the instrument developed by the AGREE collaboration for evaluating the methodological robustness of guidelines. However, the extent to which guidelines are implemented in Europe is unknown, as there is no systematic data collection and, in most countries, no structure to enable it. There are few examples of formal evaluations of the development, q...
