Ensuring Pathology and Imaging results are available to the clinics
The shared care management committee for St George and Sutherland hospitals has been processing a recent review into the shared care programmes across CESPHN. Among other findings that will be worked through, was a frustration at the hospital end regarding obtaining externally ordered results.
Looking into this it is apparent that even if the ordering GP is set up to upload results to the woman’s MHR they will not be accessible to the clinic staff.
Health Link referrals may make this less of an issue but in the meantime please try to ensure your shared care women have a hard copy of all their results to take to the booking visit.
Although not ideal, the complex nature of various software not interacting and pathology providers having different systems in place for sharing results means this is the best solution for the moment.
Schedule of Visits – change from 30 weeks to 28 weeks
