Abstract
- Abstract: This article addresses the question of whether neurologists performing interprofessional internet consultations, known as eConsults, face the same malpractice liability as for face-to-face patient care. Because the physician-patient relationship is usually unambiguous, determining the scope of legal liability arising from these relatively new approaches to patient care requires understanding the types of interactions courts have found to establish a patient-physician relationship.<br /> (Copyright © 2021 American Academy of Neurology.)
