Objective: To determine whether faculty who had red flags (unprofessional behavior, delayed response to queries, or delayed submission of required documentation) during pre-employment were more likely to have performance deficiencies than faculty who did not have red flags.
Methods: The study included 187 faculty consecutively hired in a Department of Pediatrics in a large academic health system from 2013 to 2018. Faculty with and without pre-employment red flags were compared to identify the proportion who had subsequent performance deficiencies related to documentation, unprofessional behavior, performance, or premature departure from the faculty.
