MO SB1695

Amends Section 537.035, RSMo to change peer review committee records from being completely protected from discovery and subpoena to only being protected from admissibility as evidence in judicial or administrative actions for failure to provide appropriate care

Removes protection for "interviews," "proceedings," and "minutes" from the list of privileged peer review materials, leaving only memoranda, findings, deliberations, and reports as privileged

Eliminates the provision that prevented disclosure of information acquired during peer review proceedings, now only prohibiting disclosure of opinions, recommendations, or evaluations of the committee

Removes the provision stating that disclosure of peer review materials to any entity (including government agencies or accrediting bodies) would not waive confidentiality protections

Maintains civil immunity for peer review committee members acting in good faith and preserves state health care licensing boards' authority to obtain peer review information by subpoena
