The Emory Hospitals bylaws (quoted below) require that all medical staff members maintain up-to-date contact information. The contact information required to be entered below will be used to update your contact information but does not relieve you of the responsibility to notify the medical staff office within ten days of any changes. This contact information will be available to operators and will facilitate prompt notification for patient care emergency. Hospital Bylaws require that physicians provide an email address. As email is now a major means of communication for our hospital, we are requesting that you provide a personal email address that you regularly use. Note: You also need to provide a unique identifier below. This can be either your NPI number (preferred) or the last four digits of your SSN.
"Notify the Emory Healthcare Office of System Credentialing within 10 calendar days of a change in contact information and provide in writing the updated information, which shall include an electronic mail address, office telephone number, regular mail address, and a cell or pager number. The Medical Staff Member shall designate a number through which (s)he or a covering Medical Staff Member can be contacted 24 hours per day, seven days per week. There is a presumption that a Medical Staff Member has received all notices and information directed to the contact information on file. A failure to receive information due to a failure to comply with this section shall not relieve the Medical Staff Member from any consequences of not responding to said notices"
