Autonomie dans la prescription d’examens d’imagerie diagnostique.
(radiographies, échographies, IRM)

Préparée par Deloitte Consulting pour l’ACP, cette étude s’intéresse aux données cliniques sur la rentabilité des traitements de physiothérapie ainsi qu’à leur effet sur le fardeau de la maladie. Elle estime leurs retombées potentielles sur les résultats cliniques et évalue les avantages d’un meilleur accès aux physiothérapeutes pour le traitement de trois affections : l’ostéoarthrite, les lombalgies et les coronaropathies. La version française sera bientôt disponible. La version anglaise est disponible ici
Cette évaluation vise à établir les bases d’un plan d’action systémique durable, équitable et fondé sur des données probantes qui optimisera la prestation des services physiothérapeutiques et reflétera l’évolution de la profession
