The guidelines are designed to be used in a preliminary training session for physician reviewers, as well as for reference thereafter. The form, training procedures, and guidelines are based on and modified from condition-specific structured implicit review methods previously developed at RAND for a study sponsored by the Health Care Financing Administration of the effects of Medicare's Prospective Payment System on the quality of care.
