S. Mark Taper Foundation Imaging Center
Imaging Written Orders Required as of August 15
In an effort to promote patient safety, the S. Mark Taper Foundation Imaging Center will require written orders, with clinical indications, on all imaging studies beginning Aug. 15. This assures that your patient will receive the correct study.
A written order is a statement of the procedure/test requested with the ordering physician's signature. (Hand–written, electronic and stamped signatures or our Online Request to Schedule are all acceptable.) Clinical signs and/or symptoms along with their duration also should be included.
Your assistance and understanding as the Imaging Center implements this new process is greatly appreciated. The Imaging Center will do everything possible to prevent inconvenience to patients and will work diligently with physician offices to make this go smoothly for all.
