Coverys, a nationally recognized medical professional liability insurer head-quartered in Boston, has created a series of articles aimed at assisting healthcare organizations in identifying issues that impact risk management, patient safety, and quality outcomes.
Claims alleging errors in radiology practices are common in medical professional liability claims. Such errors can have a profound effect on the patients impacted by the delay or the incorrect management of a clinical diagnosis, with potentially life-threatening or life-altering consequences.
This Red Signal Report—Radiology reviews 5 years of Coverys’ closed claims to help identify major risk factors, illuminate the warning signals and safety vulnerabilities within radiology practices, and provide evidence-based recommendations, which will help radiologists get ahead of the risks, allowing them to take proactive steps to avoid harm from actually reaching the patient.
