The rise of narrative feedback in CBME, coinciding with the rise of large language models (LLMs), raises questions about the potential of these models to generate informative comments matching human experts and associated challenges.

Verbal communication of findings on outside imaging is thus often considered insufficient with recommendations from undocumented consultations less likely to be acted upon. The increased work associated with performance of second-opinion interpretations may be substantial, raising concern that if curbside consults are not properly compensated, some second opinion interpretations may be performed more expeditiously than primary interpretations due to their more direct impact upon the daily work load, income, and relative value units. Since 2016, our quaternary-care academic pediatric hospital system has provided and billed for formal second-opinion imaging interpretations upon request for MRI, CT, and Nuclear Medicine exams, and disallowed the process of informal curbside consultations on such studies. This study aims to offer insight into our second opinion interpretation workflows and our experience in obtaining reimbursement for pediatric second opinion interpretations. Our findings indicate a formal second-opinion interpretation program can be financially viable and may help offset the additional resources required, and can serve as a guide to inform other departments attempting to establish a similar process.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51617,"journal":{"name":"Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology","volume":"54 5","pages":"Pages 590-595"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143367063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
