Core Tip	This article examines a quality improvement initiative by Virarkar et al utilizing a dedicated consult shift and real-time digital dashboards to resolve diagnostic disagreements. The dual-strategy model achieved a 76% reduction in median resolution time. Successful replication of this approach would require institutional prerequisites including digital infrastructure maturity, interoperability of electronic systems, and clearly defined accountability structures.
