    1. Office Practice Challenges: Findings From The 2008 C5/NYSGE/DOHMH Survey

    31. GI’s might consider strategies to shift administrative and “case –management” responsibilities to others: If appropriately trained, office staff can increase their role in working with patients to describe/reinforce prep, screen for contraindications, etc. Actively participate in a direct endoscopic referral process (DERS), that would encourage PCP’s and Ob-GYN’s to assess patients for direct colonoscopy referral. Over the next year, it will be important to track increases in hospital and ambulatory-surgical center referrals to ensure adequate capacity as offices are affected by the new certification legislation.
