When you inherit a patient from either a retiring colleague or from another practice (e.g., due to insurance issues), do you dig through all the prior imaging, pathology, and chemo records yourself to confirm accuracy of prior documentation, or can the records from the previous physician be relied upon for accuracy? We see many of these patients in our program, and re-inventing the wheel in this respect would take hours for the average patient.
