For patients who require reassessment regarding planned surgery or planned appointments, a new referral should be faxed through. In order to facilitate access the new referral must contain the following information:
• State the referral is an update for a current patient
• Date of original referral
• Reason for requesting a review of referral. Eg. deterioration in clinical condition, pathology
The GP will be notified of the outcome of the re-triage process
