Letter to Dr. Harry Taylor and Shannon Suhr, NP, at Aviva Health regarding worsening cognition and physical coordination of one of their patients that they seem to over-medicate without proper monitoring.
Evergreen Family Medicine has again failed to provide all the appropriate medical records on a patient that they have been treating. Every document signed by the providers is part of the medical record. It is amazing to me that they don’t understand the basics of medical record documentation.
Today they confirmed that they never completed a pain agreement or a Material Risk Notice on a chronic pain patient that they were prescribing for. They never performed any intake questionnaires to ascertain the patient’s risk levels for future opioid use based on past personal and family history.
What’s more disconcerting is that when they dismissed the patient and supposedly sent him the letter, they didn’t send it by certified mail and keep a copy of it in the patient’s file to become part of the official medical record. When they were asked about the letter not being in the patient’s medical records, Evergreen said “the patient has the letter."

Dr. Hoyne wastes patient's time "investigating" other doctor's practices by grilling them on how they operate, what they charge, and more. Yet he charges the patient's insurance for his time that has nothing to do with true patient care!
Per a letter I wrote awhile back, I see that the Oregon PDMP is finally reporting the refills properly per my suggestion.
Pulled out some records to check some things and refreshed myself with something I had been meaning to post earlier but got distracted.
I find it amazing that so many clinics, especially pain clinics are ignoring the requirements of having pain agreements and Material Risk Notices with their patients.
