Consult Management
Reduce the number of unnecessary specialist referrals while improving the patient experience
Benefits of eConsults

Prevent Unnecessary Referrals
eConsults allow primary care providers to confer with specialists about patient cases in order to prevent unnecessary referrals.
Increase Access
