摘要

Purpose

To evaluate EHR-embedded provider feedback workflow for identifying probable concerns in radiology reports and to assess large language model (LLM)-assisted classification of free text comments.

Methods

We collected reports over 11 months (December 2024-October 2025) in this single-centered quality improvement initiative. Link was embedded in EHR (Epic), which directed providers to a voluntary REDCap form. Form captured satisfaction, report adequacy, follow-up requests, and free-text comments. Analysis included free text issue categorizations with Llama 3.3, for five pre-defined non-mutually exclusive categories, and sentiment analysis. Agreement with two radiologists was assessed using Cohen’s kappa. Descriptive statistics were reported.

Results

Of 270 responses, 267 were included in the final analysis. Corresponded to 0.026% of 1,010, 219 final reports generated. Overall, 52.8% (141/267) of responses were rated ≥ 4 stars, 44.6% (119/267) indicated that the reports “somewhat” or “did not” address the clinical question, and 28.1% requested a follow-up in this voluntary cohort. Free-text comments were provided in 65.9% (176/267) of responses. 162 comments had a classifiable concern, of 176 free-text comments. The most frequent issue categories were clinical clarity and completeness (91.4%, 148/162), followed by actionability and recommendations (30.9%, 50/162). Kappa agreement showed moderate to substantial agreement between reviewers and LLM (0.607–0.734).

Conclusion

Structured provider feedback can complement traditional peer review by capturing deficiencies that may go unnoticed by radiologists to radiologists’ review alone. Human - LLM agreement was moderate to substantial, warranting further evaluation for scalable model.
