The pressure is greater than ever on radiologists, particularly those who still have to report with the same quality even in the emergency setting. In this scenario, Quality Over Read plays a vital role in the management and review of radiologist report quality.
What are Quality Over Read Services?
Quality Over Read is a peer review of the reports of a radiologist or radiologist group while simultaneously reviewing the examinations to assess the quality and in turn, ensure compliance with the standard of patient care. A QA Over Read can serve as an analysis of radiologist performance. This can benefit both onsite radiology groups as well as teleradiology practices.
