We are very pleased to congratulate Dr. Riley on his appointment as the Executive Director of the Board of Registration in Medicine.
As director of the board’s Patient Care Assessment division since 2006, Dr. Riley has worked to improve the quality of health care in Massachusetts. He has worked closely with the Department of Public Health to improve and streamline the system for reporting Serious Reportable Events and working to reduce their occurrence, and he is a member of many advisory committees and work groups seeking to reduce errors and improve patient safety.
Dr. Riley has shown his commitment to Massachusetts’ health care consumers over the past 3 years and we look forward to continuing to work with him in his new role.
-Deborah W. Wachenheim
