Radiologists back compulsory decision-support software for GPs
But they say the MBS task force doesn't understand the gravity of what it's proposing

In January, the MBS Review Taskforce’s diagnostic medicine clinical committee recommended that GPs should be required to use a computer app when ordering Medicare-funded imaging.
