Sample Surveys and Reports
NSPAR is a survey-based assessment program. There are three versions of NSPAR currently applied to physicians in Nova Scotia – a family physician version, a version for medical specialists and one for surgeons. Each version uses surveys that have been designed and modified to suit the unique needs of each of the three categories of physicians. Certain practice areas are presently not eligible for NSPAR review. These include pediatrics, psychiatry, anesthesiology, radiology, laboratory medicine and episodic care. The program will expand to include these areas in the near future.
