Are they reimbursed for it on a fee per service basis? This is a very common surgical emergency, the radiation risk will be high long term
I don't know about the reimbursement. The radiation risk is controversial. See this 2016 blog post I wrote with @RogueRad http://skepticalscalpel.blogspot.com/2016/06/irrational-fear-of-ct-scans-in.html …
I’m not a pediatric surgeon but in adult population CT almost entirely eliminated unnecessary appendectomies. Which run as high as 20% in pre-CT era
Sure. I think that is very clinician dependent. In the UK we would not expect that high a rate.
