I’m having some concerns about a behaviour I’ve been seeing in some receiving referral centres that is bothersome. I’m not sure it has a formal name, but I’m calling it #consultdiva . It needs to stop. What do I mean? See thread.
Def- #consultdiva : refusing consult requests by referring doctors claiming the referral is incomplete or deficient. Usually without any effort to correct those deficiencies themselves.
Let’s use some examples (I’m using a lot of Uro because hey…why not):
- GP: U/S shows renal mass
- Uro: incomplete referral, needs triphasic CT and re-refer.
-GP: please see for gross hematuria
- Uro: incomplete referral, need UA, triphasic CT, urine cytology then re-refer
- GP: U/S shows renal mass
- Uro: incomplete referral, needs triphasic CT and re-refer.
-GP: please see for gross hematuria
- Uro: incomplete referral, need UA, triphasic CT, urine cytology then re-refer
