Follow-up in Outpatient Care
Tracking # 20-903694
Course overview
Medical literature studies show that problems with test-result follow-up are still common in outpatient care. While electronic health records systems have helped to make test tracking more automated and dependable, they haven't completely eliminated the risk of test results falling through the cracks. This activity recommends strategies that may bolster the reliability of your follow-up protocols.
