| Q: Do you share the names and CVs of the physician reviewers? |
| Yes. When a peer review is requested, MDReview will recommend a physician reviewer within the appropriate specialty. MDReview shares the name and CV of the recommended reviewer with the hospital and gains approval from the hospital before proceeding with the review. All completed reviews are signed by the reviewer and are accompanied by a copy of the reviewer’s CV. |
| Q: How is MDReview pricing structured? |
| Our fixed fee schedule allows the hospital to know all costs up front and not be at the mercy of hourly billing. Time and again our clients tell us how much they appreciate the value of what we do and our pricing approach. Our objective is to keep MDReview as simple and easy to engage as possible. |
| Q: Are your reviewers all board certified? |
| Yes, but that’s just the beginning. Physicians are invited to join the MDReview team only if highly recommended by someone we know and trust—usually an existing panel member. All physicians are board certified and actively practicing. That means they’re in the trenches and understand all the issues, personalities, pitfalls, politics and needs surrounding peer review. You can rest assured that MDReview physicians are of the highest caliber. |
| Q: Are any non-physicians ever involved in the peer review process? |
| Absolutely not. MDReview never puts another person between the physician reviewer and the medical record. It is of paramount importance that no information be filtered or screened and that the reviewer receives the medical record in its entirety. Such filtering can lead to bias, inaccuracy or misinterpretation, which are unacceptable to MDReview. |
| Q: What other services does MDReview provide? |
| Peer review is our sole focus. MDReview was born out of the frustration and complexity that we ourselves and our hospital colleagues faced when seeking external peer review. We were simply unable to find options that met our standards of quality, objectivity and timeliness, so we established a company to address the problem. We believe peer review warrants the unobstructed focus and attention that is unique to MDReview. |
| Q: Does MDReview meet the 21 and 10-day deadline? |
| MDReview is passionate about meeting every deadline. Ensuring the timely delivery of every peer review is the primary focus of our project management team. |
| Q: How does MDReview ensure the high quality of each peer review? |
| After selecting only those physicians who are able to meet our high standards, we train them in the MDReview method to ensure all written reports are thorough yet concise and reach a clear, well supported conclusion. Our reports reflect the highest degree of integrity because all of our physician reviewers follow a fair and objective process with reports written in a consistent format created by MDReview. We evaluate our physician reviewers after each engagement to ensure that the end product meets our very high standards. It’s an organic, ongoing process that is critical to our mission to provide uncompromising peer review in a timely manner. |
