jmj11 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I get confused about patients who want the portal to read their medical records after each visit. Almost always it is for them to make sure that you painted them in the MOST postiive light and if you didn't, they will drag you though the coals. I think that is always a sign of some mental health issue if not paranoia then a personality disorder. Personally, I have no desire to read my PCP's chart notes about me. If he said was the biggest AH he as ever met . . . I couldn't care less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator ventana Posted March 24, 2015 Moderator Share Posted March 24, 2015 funny you say this a family member is going through some medical stuff now - and reads the note after every visit and has decided this is not a good idea...... wonder how this will all play out in the future..... I would probably read it, just for fact checking ie that they did not list me as a smoker, but I don't really care about the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paula Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 The patient portal I have through my health care provider does not supply the chart note. All I see is the diagnosis, upcoming appointments, my vital signs, ability to email the provider, and labs that were done. Why on earth would any healthcare system put the chart note in the patient portal for them to read? If that is what is coming, will we be graded on how we state things, or our assessments, etc? I can see it now........"PA Jones, you should have said it differently so your patient wouldn't have been so offended that you dictated the abdominal exam was limited due to the size of the pannus". "If this continues your wRVUs will be cut in half." LOL. That is a scary thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
