Opening Remarks | Update from the Commission on Credentialing (No CE)
The ASHP Commission on Credentialing has recently implemented several changes to the accreditation process and clarification in the accreditation standard. The Commission has developed pharmacy specific duty hours that will be described at this session.

The Commission on Credentialing and the ASHP Board of Directors have approved a method of weighting certain elements of the accreditation standard in terms of compliance and their impact on the length of accreditation; these elements are known as “Critical Factors”. Critical Factors have been identified throughout the accreditation standards for PGY1, PGY2, PGY1 community, and PGY1 managed care residency programs to increase the transparency and consistency of the accreditation process. The importance of these critical factors and how a program can best address these issues will be discussed.

As the Board of Pharmacy Specialties has added a new board certification area in ambulatory, and may be adding additional accreditation areas in the future, the Commission has addressed the length of time a PGY2 residency program director has to become compliant with the board certification area with a new recognized specialty area in pharmacy; additionally clarification will be provided on which PGY2 Residency program directors are required to be board certified by BPS.

An overview will be given related to PhORCAS - the Pharmacy Online Residency Accreditation Service, and the new changes that will continue with the post match process. Additional information about PhORCAS will be provided in additional programming during the conference.
