DELINEATION OF PRIVILEGES –
THORACIC/CARDIOVASCULAR SURGERY
GENERAL STATEMENTS
Procedures are separated into levels of complexity (Level I, Level II, and Level III), which require increasing levels of education and
experience. Level II procedures may or may not require evidence of additional training beyond residency. Documentation of
additional training and/or experience is required for all Level III procedures.
Title 10 of the Official Code of Rules and Regulations of the State of New York section 405.29(d)(3)(i)(a) requires cardiac
surgeons perform a minimum of 50 cardiac surgeries a year, with formal review for physicians with annual volumes below
minimum volume standards.
Procedures designated with an asterisk (*) indicate that Moderate (Conscious) Sedation may be required. If you do not have
Moderate (Conscious) Sedation privileges, you must invite a Kaleida Health anesthesiologist to participate in the procedure.
Procedures designated with a cross (+) are presently granted solely to physicians that are part of an exclusive contract with Kaleida
Health. If you are not part of the contract, your request for these privileges will not be granted.
Level 1 (core) privileges are those able to be performed after successful completion of an accredited residency program in that core
specialty. The removal or restriction of these privileges would require further investigation as to the individual’s overall ability to
practice, but there is no need to delineate these privileges individually.

cardiothoracic surgical training program, and documentation of current competency.
