Specialist physicians' attitudes and practice patterns regarding disclosure of pre-referral medical errors.

    Prior studies demonstrate that disclosure of medical errors to patients is central to maintaining a therapeutic provider–patient relationship.

Investigators interviewed 30 oncologists to understand their attitudes toward disclosure of medical errors occurring prior to the referral of a patient. Most believed that error disclosure did not benefit patients and disclosure practices varied significantly.
