Krista,
Yes there are sites who have another sonographer come in and repeat the exam 
and just record the diagnostic problems or shots to prove pt is normal.  Other 
way is a repeated venous duplex within an established time frame  (?60 days).  
Or exams repeated at another accredited site.    But this exam is very 
difficult to correlate. Claudia
