Incomplete Chart Notifications

Sent on behalf of Dr. Ian Thompson, Interim CMO


E-mail to medical staff, April 22, 2020.

As you are aware, on April 1, 2020, we paused our notifications to members of medical staff regarding incomplete charts. The number of overdue charts is climbing, which is understandable under the circumstances. Given that the number of Covid-19 positive patients on Vancouver Island remains manageable and that we are discussing the phased resumption of services, we will resume weekly notifications to medical staff of overdue charts on May 6, 2020. Shortly thereafter, we will resume notifying medical leaders of their members’ overdue charts as we did previously.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.

Regards,

Ian Thompson MD
Interim CMO
Island Health
