Reactions to Saving Diagnostic Thinking in the EHR

Neurodevelopmental pediatrician “I wouldn’t want to save the differential diagnosis to the chart until I have all the findings, I don’t want to save my intermediate thinking to a chart.”

Pediatric geneticist “I am really concerned about the malpractice implications. Having to defend even one lawsuit stemming from use of the DDSS would negate any time saved.”

Pediatric geneticist “The whole exome or genome tests coverage trumps concerns about legal liability because the provider cannot be faulted for failing to consider and order the appropriate test.”
