    IAMRA Physician Information Exchange (PIE)

    The PIE is a platform that facilitates enhanced information sharing across international borders for IAMRA members (who are medical regulatory authorities) about the doctors that they register, in the interests of public protection. This may include information about doctors who have had action taken against them and who may attempt to practice in another jurisdiction. It may also include those who make fraudulent applications for registration.

    PIE is an exclusive service for IAMRA members and a key focus area of the IAMRA Strategic Plan 2024-2026. The PIE platform and other useful information including a Quick Start Guide and Guidelines are available on the members-only section of this website.

    Please contact Sarah Heermans, IAMRA Director of Operations, at sheermans@iamra.com for more information and to register for the PIE.

          Message from the Chair


          Kia ora koutou, rau rangatira mā – Greetings leaders and colleagues,

          I am pleased to share that the he IAMRA Symposium taking place in Baltimore on September 20 will showcase the re-launch  of IAMRA’s Physician Information Exchange (PIE) platform. The PIE platform is a key focus of our Strategic Plan

          2024-2026 due to its unique ability to  support the exchange of registration and fitness to practice information between medical regulatory authorities.

          With the increasing focus on  ensuring a safe and globally mobile healthcare workforce, the PIE platform is an important IAMRA member benefit serving to support regulators with critical patient safety information.

          What is the PIE platform?

          The PIE platform facilitates enhanced information sharing across international borders for IAMRA members about the doctors that they register, in the interests of public protection.

          This can include information about doctors who have had action taken against them and who may attempt to register for practice in another jurisdiction. It may also include those who make fraudulent applications for registration.

          The PIE platform is truly visionary and there is no equivalent information exchange platform in the world that can help us achieve our collective vision of safe medical care.

          We look forward to showcasing the PIE platform in Baltimore and assisting our membership in using this exciting new resource.

          If you are a medical regulatory interested in learning more about using the PIE, pleasecontact sheermans@iamra.com

          We hope you find the newsletter useful. Please get in touch to share any medical regulatory updates for forthcoming editions.

          He mihi mahana - Warm greetings and wishes
