E-Consults in Dermatology: A Retrospective Analysis.

Dermatology electronic consultations (e-consults) placed by primary care providers (PCPs) can increase access to specialty care while reducing wait times and providing accurate clinical outcomes. These e-consults also may reduce barriers for underserved patients who historically have limited access to dermatologic care. Our retrospective chart review examines patient outcomes from a dermatology e-consult program at a tertiary care medical center.

A Qualitative Examination of the Preferred Language for Patients Discussing Genital Psoriasis With the Physician.

Through a literature review, we aim to identify the frequency and effectiveness of accountability in reminder-based intervention studies.
