A repeat consultation is an additional consultation rendered by the same consultant for the same presenting problem, following care rendered to the patient by another physician in the interval following the initial consultation but preceding the repeat consultation. This service requires a new written request from the referring practitioner and is applicable to non-emergency patients in chronic care hospitals, convalescent hospitals, nursing homes, homes for the aged, and designated chronic or convalescent care beds.
Referral requiredFrom: Physician, NursePractitioner, DentalSurgeon
A repeat consultation has the same requirements as a consultation including the requirement for a new written request by the referring physician, nurse practitioner or dental surgeon.
A copy of the written request for the consultation, signed by the referring physician, nurse practitioner or dental surgeon must be kept in the consulting physician's medical record. In a long-term care institution where common medical records are maintained, the written request may be contained on the common medical record.
The request identifies the consultant by name, the referring physician, nurse practitioner or dental surgeon by name and billing number, and identifies the patient by name and health number.
The written request sets out the information relevant to the referral and specifies the service(s) required.
