‘Improving referrals together’ puts local clinicians in the driving seat to support improved quality of referrals to hospital – both by GPs and consultant to consultant - along with better advice and guidance and improved patient experience. The aim is to ensure that when individuals do need to be referred to a specialist service, that they see the right consultant, along with all relevant information at hand, first time, and with better feedback to GPs from secondary care.
Copies of the latest clinically developed pathways that have been jointly agreed as part of the ‘Improving Referrals Together’ programme can be found by following the links below to your respective GP intranets:
