Medical Protocol

What happens if the collective prescription to adjust or the prescription to initiate refers to a clinical condition not covered by a medical protocol published by INESSS?
According to the practice guideline of the Collège des médecins du Québec (05/2017) entitled Les ordonnances collectives (p. 7): “When the collective prescription, the prescription to adjust or the prescription to initiate refers to a clinical condition not covered by a protocol published by INESSS, physicians may opt not to reference an external protocol or may themselves determine the procedures, methods, limits, contraindications or standards they wish to see applied. In this case, the prescription will be complete in and of itself.” [Translation]
