IAMRA Physician Information Exchange (PIE) PIE is a secure, members-only platform that supports global patient safety by enabling medical regulatory authorities to share critical information about physicians subject to significant regulatory sanctions. International investigativereportinghas reinforced the importance of robust cross-border information sharing and identified PIE as a key tool to address gaps in regulatory oversight. By facilitating timely international communication, PIE helps prevent practitioners from evading accountability by moving between jurisdictions. There is no equivalent international system to PIE. Member Engagement PIE continues to receive significant attention and engagement from IAMRA members worldwide. It has been featured regularly in IAMRAnewsletters, and past IAMRAwebinarshave focused specifically on the practical use and value of PIE, including real-world case examples from the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and the United States.
