Special report on medical staff relationships. Ninth Circuit buttresses peer review immunities.

Following on the heels of Austin, the Fobbs and Smith decisions may result in a significant reduction in the number of federal antitrust claims filed by aggrieved physicians in the context of peer review actions. However, by permitting claims of discrimination and conspiracy to go forward in the Fobbs case, the Ninth Circuit may have encouraged the filing of more suits against peer reviewers based on these types of claims, rather than on antitrust theories. In order to benefit from HCQIA's immunities, medical staffs are once again admonished to review, and revise when necessary their medical staff bylaws and peer review policies to provide for adequate notice and hearing, and to assure that peer review participants are well informed about and carefully comply with all of HCQIA's requirements.
