Following is a list of the standing committees of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan.
- Advisory Committee on Medical Imaging
The objectives of the Committee are to investigate and advise on medical imaging equipment and services, including the consideration of the economic implications involved in the provision of such services. - Alternate Dispute Resolution/Mediation
When concerns or allegations are raised to the College's attention with respect to the performance or conduct of a physician, the College has a number of response options. - Complaints and The Complaints Resolution Advisory Committee
The primary role of the Committee is to resolve complaints regarding the conduct of physicians. - Competency Assessment and Maintenance
If the Council has reasonable grounds to believe a physician may not be competent, it may appoint a Competency Committee under Section 45(1) of The Medical Profession Act, 1981. - Discipline and The Discipline Committee
Generally, the discipline process begins with a concern expressed by a patient or some other individual on the conduct of a physician. If the concern is sufficiently serious that it may result in discipline, it is referred to the Council of the College or the Executive Committee - The E.C.G. Committee
The purpose of the E.C.G. Committee is to assess members who wish to demonstrate their competency in the interpretation of electrocardiograms and bill the Medical Care Insurance Branch (M.C.I.B.) for this service. - Health Care Facilities Credentialling Committee
The purpose of the Committee is two-fold: to make recommendations regarding the granting of physician privileges; and, hospital assessments. - Laboratory Quality Assurance Program Committee
The Laboratory Quality Assurance Program Committee oversees the activities of seven subject committees: Biochemistry, Blood Bank, Cytology, Haematology, Microbiology, Anatomic Pathology and Clinical Input. - The Practice Enhancement Program (PEP) Committee
Since its inception in 1993, the Committee has been effective in producing a Protocol for Office Assessment, a patient satisfaction survey and a pre-visit questionnaire for completion by physicians chosen for assessment. - Prescription Review Program
All physicians should become aware of the details of the program in order to ensure that pharmacists will fill the prescriptions that they write. Writing prescriptions that meet the program's requirements will also mean fewer interruptions for physicians.
