Subject: opmc administrative warning

I got a negative review from OPMC following an interview that didn’t have a doctor of the correct specialty (got ID instead of ER where delayed diagnosis of meningitis was the issue). We asked for, and got, a 2nd interview with an ER doc of the right specialty and they not only cleared my client but commended her care in the ER.
If you are at the Admin Warning stage it may be too late to redo the interview; was the right specialty in attendance for that?

Hi I attended an “administrative warning” meeting with OPMC, which consisted of three physicians, none of which were in the relevant specialty. Has anyone else seen a committee with no relevant specialty present? Thanks Ken
