This authorization takes on the form of a request. Once ordered, the form automatically prints in Radiology where the Technologist receives it and completes the exam. The ordering physician must sign the outpatient request form. The form must be filled out completely and have legibly written ordering and attending physician's first and last name. Once the form is complete, call the appropriate scheduling number, and fax the request to 3-6999.
Reports are available from many sources.
We file a copy of the report in the Radiology film jacket and one copy is sent to Medical Records. The quickest way to get a report is to listen to it on the Radiology dictaphone system. The report stays on dictaphone 7 days after it has been dictated. To access this system, dial 924-1204 and follow the prompting instructions. You have already been set-up in our system and should not have trouble listening to the reports.
