A repeat consultation is an additional consultation rendered by the same consultant, in respect of 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. A repeat consultation has the same requirements as a consultation, including: • A written request from a referring physician, nurse practitioner, or dental surgeon. • A general, specific, or medical specific assessment, including a review of all relevant data. • Preparation of a written report (including findings, opinions, and recommendations) to the referring practitioner.

Referral requiredFrom: Physician, NursePractitioner, DentalSurgeon

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, except in the case of a consultation which occurs in a hospital, long-term care institution or multi-specialty clinic where common medical records are maintained. In such cases, 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.

The consultant must prepare a written report (including findings, opinions, and recommendations) to the referring physician, nurse practitioner or dental surgeon.
