title: No pattern seen in survey for overreader qualifications.
abstract: A survey was conducted in the fall of 1989 to determine how hospitals handle the task of overreading of computer-generated electrocardiograms. All hospital-based members (1,451) of the American College of Physician Executives were sent questionnaires. Responses were received from 413 physician executives, a response rate of about 28 percent. The results of the survey are summarized in this article.
