Make dr2dr Work for You
Choosing to integrate dr2dr into your practice is one of the best decisions you will make. Not only will you be able to instantly connect and collaborate with other healthcare providers in Alberta, but the instant and secure communications will only improve the standard and continuity of care for your patients.
The best part is that the province of Alberta has made the decision even easier by implementing new e-consultation billing codes, compensating physicians for sending e-consultation requests and providing consultations via secure messaging.
Alberta Health Service Code 03.01R
Physician to Physician Secure E-Consultation: Referring Physician
Code 03.01R provides compensation to physicians who complete their e-consultation requests using a secure messaging system, such as dr2dr. Instead of faxing or emailing the request, physicians who send the e-consultation to another physician or specialist through dr2dr can submit under code 03.01R.
