The new Enhancing Quality Using the Inspection Program (EQUIP) law places more responsibility for quality assurance on the interpreting radiologists and the lead interpreting physician (LIP). Compliance with the law will require addressing three specific questions related to quality assurance and clinical image corrective action, continued compliance, and ensuring LIP oversight. This process enables the radiologist to exemplify added value through physician leadership, team integration, and improved patient care.
新的《利用检查程序提高质量》(EQUIP)法案将更多的质量保证责任赋予了影像解读放射科医生和首席影像解读医师(LIP)。遵守该法案需要解决与质量保证和临床影像纠正措施、持续合规以及确保LIP监督相关的三个具体问题。这一过程使放射科医生能够通过医师领导力、团队整合和改善患者护理来体现附加值。
