391 Factors affecting electronic dermatology consultations for patients with uncertain cutaneous neoplasms

Abstract

With the growing incidence of skin cancer globally, electronic consultations (e-consults) can be a useful tool for dermatologists in the assessment of cutaneous lesions. In this study, we sought to characterize the social and institutional factors affecting completion of initial e-consults as well as in-office follow-ups. Patients with an ICD 10 code of neoplasm with uncertain behavior at The Ohio State University Medical Center that received an e-consult order from May 2017 to May 2021 were queried.
