Submitting a referral? Include relevant files only
Submitting a referral to the WCVM Veterinary Medical Centre (VMC)? The health information management (HIM) team has a reminder about submitting only files relevant to the current referral.
To ensure that the VMC's referral review process operates smoothly, the HIM team asks that referring veterinarians submit only the records directly relevant to the current referral submission.
The VMC has recently received large files that include years of historical referring veterinarian visits. These records require review by multiple VMC teams, which can slow down the processing of the current referral submission.
Sending only necessary information with a referral submission helps the VMC teams serve referring veterinarians and their patients faster and more efficiently.
