Discussion Question
Case Study: A 65-year-old woman was just been diagnosed with Stage 3 non-
Hodgkin's lymphoma. She was informed of this diagnosis in her primary care
physician's office.
She leaves her physician's office and goes home to review all of her tests
and lab results with her family. She goes home and logs into her PHR. She is
only able to pull up a portion of her test results. She calls her physician's
office with this concern. The office staff discussed that she had part of her
lab work completed at a lab not connected to the organization, part was
completed at the emergency room, and part was completed in the lab that is
part of the doctor's office organization.
The above scenario might be a scenario that you have commonly worked with in
clinical practice. For many reasons, patients often receive healthcare from
multiple organizations that might have different systems.
