From 16th July all new routine referrals from GPs to Consultant-led outpatient services need to be referred via NHS e-Referrals. Referrals received outside of e-RS will not be processed but returned to the referring GP. This is in line with the National ‘Paper Switch Off’ Project. This is to ensure we are compliant with the NHS England 17 / 18 Contract. Urgent referrals will be processed and a notification will be sent to the GP stating NHS e-RS is our preferred method of receiving referrals. All referrals are reviewed by a clinician and if it is felt that a patient needs to be seen sooner than the appointment date booked, the appointment will be brought forward.
