Abstract: A method for providing a medical second opinion includes receiving a first IDC-9 code from a physician at a computerized system. The first ICD-9 code is related to a clinical interest of the physician. A second ICD-9 code is received at the computerized system from a patient. The computerized system compares the first and second ICD-9 code values. By finding equivalent or equal ICD-9 codes, a physician having an appropriate clinical interest is automatically referred to the patient. The physician provides a second medical opinion.
