- State Sanctions
- Federal Sanctions
- Disciplinary Actions
Disciplinary actions are actions taken to punish or restrict physicians who have demonstrated professional misconduct. HealthGrades reports state and federal disciplinary actions (if any) from the previous 5 years except when a physician's license has been revoked or surrendered.
Physicians with a disciplinary action in one state will often move to another state where they may have a clean record. Since HealthGrades painstakingly compiles disciplinary action information from all 50 states, you'll know if a physician has an action in more than one state.
Board Certification- Is your physician board certified?
- In what specialties is your physician certified to practice?
Certification lets you know that a physician has gone above and beyond what medical licensure requires, receiving additional training and examination to be certified in a particular specialty.
A physician who is not board certified may still be an excellent physician. Some physicians choose not to apply for certification. If you are considering a doctor who is not board certified, it may be important to know why he or she is not certified.
Certification lets you know that a physician has successfully completed an accredited educational program, passed several evaluations, and possesses the knowledge, skills, and experience needed to provide care in the certified specialty. Once certified, physicians must attend continuing medical education programs throughout their careers in order to remain certified.

A medical home provides patients with access to quality health care from doctors who practice evidence-based guidelines; use appropriate health information technology; and demonstrate the use of "best practices" while being accountable for the quality and value of care. The BTE Medical Home program seeks to improve the quality of care for all patients by recognizing and rewarding physicians for demonstrating that they have adopted really good systems and processes of care, and are using those systems to deliver positive results in the management of their patients - in particular patients with chronic conditions. BTE Medical Home designation is achieved through a combination of BTE's Care Recognition and Physician Office Recognition programs.
BTE Medical Home recognition is a combination of BTE's existing programs:
- Good Systems and Processes - means that the physician has achieved Level II or III recognition in the BTE Physician Office Recognition program, which demonstrates that the physician is collecting and using information to manage patient care, and the physician uses electronic systems to promote patient safety.
- Good Outcomes - means that the physician has achieved Level 2 or 3 recognition in any two BTE condition-specific programs, which demonstrates that the physician is improving delivery of care and is measuring and reporting clinical performance.
BTE offers three levels of Recognition through its approved Performance Assessment Organization. Higher Recognition levels require physicians to meet higher thresholds in performance measure areas.
