  • Pre-Populated Bi-Rads Catagories in Templates

    Posted by 16almujaf_892 on September 27, 2022 at 5:51 am

    I’m doing a survey to see who is pre-populateing a bi-rad catagorie into voice rec templates and who is leaving it blank and making the radiologist choose.
     
    TIA,
    Brian

    Seems to be a risky proposition.  Overlook one patient that winds up with a bad outcome after getting a ‘normal’ report and you’ve got all sorts of liability, and added liability for the template, I am sure.
     
    An ER doc once asked me if we could only print reports with findings to the ER printer … I asked what he would think about the printer running out of paper or otherwise going off line.  He withdrew his request.

      We leave that blank at this facility and have templates for the rads to choose; BI-RADS is assigned by the radiologist who reads the study
