Ann Marie,

Unfortunately this is the case in some Labs.

Hank,

 

It might be nice to be pretty fast to sign off on exams.  However, I would
offer the following info to your docs.  In order to interpret the exams,
they must be reading the images, reviewing relevant data, and reading the
summary or impression (if prepared by the technical staff).  They should
have the file open for at least a few minutes in order to perform these
tasks.  

 

I have personally been involved in investigating claims that physicians were
simply "signing off" on studies.  Any computer person can tell who opened a
file and for how long the file was open.  Just be careful that your
physicians do not get too efficient/quick.  It would be hard to justify to
an outside entity that they really spent enough time to interpret things.

 

Just my two cents worth

Flownetters,

We have a vascular lab data base and our physicians are impatient with the
time it takes to review and electronically sign off on a patient.  My
question is how long does it take start to finish per patient to do the
following: select, the patient, review the data and electronically sign off?
Our physicians want immediate gratification and this is not happening.
Thank you for your feedback.
