Welcome to the CONCUR Peer Review System

Click on a tab to continue.

Thank you for logging into the CONCUR Peer Review system.
First time users should set up additional users for the facility as well as the physician list.
USER SET-UP
 

There are three levels of user access - DATA , ADMIN, DIRECTOR
DATA – can enter peer review events and print peer review forms (i.e. clerk)
ADMIN – perform DATA functions, print reports, and edit users (i.e. manager)
DIRECTOR – perform ADMIN functions and follow up on peer review events (i.e. Medical Director)

The account was set up with ADMIN privileges. This user should select the EDIT USERS tab and create additional users for the facility.


PHYSICIAN LIST
 

Prior to entering peer review events, the physician list must be established. This list may be modified at any time by an ADMIN or DIRECTOR.

Select the PHYSICIAN LIST tab and enter a unique identifier for each physician. It is recommended NOT to use the physician’s full name. Initials are commonly used.


INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
 

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.


 
Periodically, these forms should be collected and entered into the CONCUR system by any level of user. Peer Review events are documented by selecting the DATA ENTRY tab and entering the information on the forms completed by the reviewers.


 
At anytime, the ADMIN or DIRECTOR may generate reports of reviews for a given time interval. The reports could be for all levels of review, all level 3 & 4, and level 3 & 4 that have not been followed up on by the Medical Director.


 
FOLLOW UP – DIRECTOR only
 

After generating a report that lists all level 3 & 4 that have not been followed up, the Medical Director should review the chart and take corrective action.

The Medical Director must then log onto the CONCUR system and select the FOLLOW UP tab. There the Medical Director will be prompted to select the Peer Review to provide comments for. Ongoing comments should be entered and the UPDATE RESOLUTION button should be selected. When the follow up is complete, the Medical Director should select the RESOLVE REVIEW button.
