ECFMG is pleased to announce that on January 1, the Danish Patient Safety Authority incorporated ECFMG’s Electronic Portfolio of International Credentials (EPICSM) into its process for assessing the medical qualifications of physicians who are citizens of countries outside of the European Economic Community (EEC) and/or are graduates of medical schools outside the EEC. The Danish Patient Safety Authority now requires these applicants to have their medical education credentials primary-source verified through EPIC before submitting their registration applications to the Authority. ECFMG is proud to partner with the Danish Patient Safety Authority to add primary-source verification—a best practice and the best protection against fraudulent credentials—to the Authority’s tools for evaluating the qualifications of physicians who wish to practice in Denmark.
