The impact could include:
• Confusion for patients — physicians have reported inaccuracies on the website such as wrong addresses or misidentified specialties associated with their listings.
• Inaccurate information — providers are able to review and correct quality information before it’s posted online, but if an error is reported after the 30-day grace period the correction will be made “as soon as technically feasible.”
• Patients may not understand the data presented and misinterpret information about the practice.
