Yes, Sunset has stringent peer review processes and standards. 100% of our preliminary reports are peer-reviewed the next day by the local, client radiologist. Client radiologists complete a peer-review form should a discrepancy be identified in one of our radiologists’ reports. Clients are asked to fax the peer-review form to Sunset’s main office. A copy of the client’s peer review form is archived and the radiologist is notified and asked to review and comment upon the exam, and the perceived discrepancy. Sunset logs and tracks all discrepancies. Sunset analyzes and trends the aggregate data quarterly. This analysis is one of Sunset’s key internal measures of success. As a testament to our dedication to the utmost in patient care, we use the discrepancy analysis to secure and maintain Sunset’s Joint Commission accreditation.
