What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary. A response might be: Dr. Daniels ordered a chest x-ray and a CBC for her patient, Doreen Gray. Ms. Gray is going to have her tests done at the hospital. The x-ray report comes back from the radiology department on one date, and the CBC results come back a week later. Dr. Daniels will need to review the results for each of these and then take appropriate action (order meds, call patient with results, schedule a follow-up exam, etc.).
