I don't think patient results can legallay be shared (in the US) on a reference call with any specifics, and vague statements are no better or worse than a manager describing a dev's performance on projects.

And I'd be kind of surprised if a practice shared billing performance info. That'd be like sharing a tech support person's ticket close rate, but even more sensitive. Maybe at a very high level if HR isn't concerned with defamation claims?

Patients cannot, but other doctors see these outcomes and can comment on them in vague terms. Administrators can also comment in vague terms.

It's all anonymizable.
