Subject: Re: missed fractures in A/E and a bit about NICE
re reluctance to implement NICE guidelines.
A possible stick I have heard used successfully in similar situations is
this:
Say to your medical insurance agency- NICE says this, my hosptial says
'no', are you still happy to cover me? Medical insurance writes back
'no, we are not happy to cover you'.
Show letter to managers.
Managers may not be scared of doctors, but they are sure as hell scared
of lawyers.
Tom
