Consultation and handover
This page is for the treating team. It states the route, the format and the deadline.
The consultation route and how to trigger it
One call from the treating doctor is enough. I need the ward, a doctor by name and a number at which the ward can be reached. What was agreed is confirmed in writing on the same working day.
Handover of findings: what is needed, by what route, in what format
- Course and current findings, discharge or interim letters.
- Imaging as DICOM, not as a photograph of a screen.
- Medication list with doses and running perfusors.
- Ventilation and circulatory parameters over the course, not as a single point.
- Microbiology with dates, and the current anti-infective therapy.
How to send me records
By way of the case-related upload link, from the ward or from the secretariat. No account, no app. Not by e-mail and not by fax — a fax reaches a device that stands in a corridor. A printable one-page sheet with the route for the secretariat is available on request.
Structured case discussion
Thirty minutes, by telephone or video, with a written agenda beforehand: question, current goal of treatment, open decisions, deadline. The participants are named by you.
Written report and reply deadline
A written report follows the discussion, with a date and a named author. Deadline: the same working day for the summary, two working days for the report.
Limits
- No assessment of the treatment given so far, and no report for a legal dispute.
- No second course of treatment against the treating team.
- No instruction to your staff; the responsibility stays where it is.
What is settled elsewhere
The framework and the invoicing are stated separately, and so is the case in which the goal of treatment changes.
If the goal of treatment changes: When treatment no longer reaches its goal.
