Can an oncologist order a low dose CT scan for a patient currently under her care? She has been told in the past that only a PCP can order and be paid for this. This seems odd to me because the results of the scan determine the course of care for her. Ultimately she would be treating him and managing his care if the results show recurrence or there are issues to be addressed.
