After creating additional users and the physician database, select the REVIEW FORM tab and print out the review form. This form should be copied and distributed to each physician to record the peer reviews.
Periodically while reading a case, the radiologist may review a previous exam. For example, while reading an MRI, the radiologist may review the previous CT. By reviewing the CT that has already been interpreted, a Peer Review event has taken place. The radiologist should document this event on the form provided.
The Peer Review event is recorded using a 4 point scale.
Level 1 – reviewer agrees with original interpretation
Level 2 – reviewer disagrees with original interpretation; diagnosis is difficult;
no follow up is necessary
Level 3 - reviewer disagrees with original interpretation; diagnosis is should be
made most of the time; follow up by Medical Director is recommended.
A valid MR# must be provided in this case.
Level 4 - reviewer disagrees with original interpretation; diagnosis is should be
made all of the time; follow up by Medical Director is recommended.
A valid MR# must be provided in this case.
