After every doctor's visit or specialist appointment, is a medical letter written by a specialist to the family doctor?

After every doctor's visit or after every specialist appointment, is a medical letter written to the family doctor by a specialist?

For example, if I go to the rheumatologist every three months, does he or she have to write a letter to my family doctor every three months?

And please with reasons

As a rule, a note is entered in the file after (almost) each consultation, and a doctor’s letter is usually also written to the assignee (who issued the transfer) and is also sent there.

*foreseen, the Pat. did not contradict this.

If, however, a control is made within a few days, for example, “only” one does not write a letter again (at least if there are no significant changes)

Why not write a doctor’s letter again

because it is unnecessary effort if nothing is to be communicated “essentially”.

Note in the file

due to documentation (for example, the work/activity of the doctor or your visit there is documented)

Only when crossed on the co-treatment transfer.

Then treat both doctors

If the medical consultation took place after the doctor’s transfer, a doctor’s report is usual, but not necessarily necessary.

No, if you’re still in treatment with the rheumatologist.
