YOUR SERVICE PATHWAY
We begin with the diagnosis, available information and the specific questions the patient would like the reviewing provider to consider.
Relevant reports, imaging and treatment history are identified, organized and, where agreed, prepared for medical translation.
Potential reviewers are considered according to specialty, clinical relevance, case complexity and availability.
We coordinate the available review format, which may be written, remote or otherwise arranged by the reviewing provider.
We help organize the resulting information and the questions that may need to be discussed with the patient’s treating team or a potential provider in China.
