We want to share with you a new initiative titled D/C the CC, with the primary objective to elevate sharing of important information, while reducing the burden of unimportant information automatically sent to our internal PCPs.

To address this challenge, auto-routing of outpatient visit notes to UR Medicine PCPs and URMFG will no longer occur as of June 12, 2023. Notes to EXTERNAL providers (non-employed community providers) will continue to route automatically. 

Specialist Best Practice Guidelines:

• We are asking specialists to actively assess the necessity of sharing each note.
  • Only send notes to team members if there is a significant change in status and plan for your mutual patient, or if it is necessary that the recipient knows this new information at this time. 
  • Exercise discretion, sending only essential notes such as initial consults while excluding routine follow-ups with no changes. 
• Utilize the "Follow-up" section of the Visit Navigator to communicate actions required of the recipient (see Tip Sheet for more information).
