SESLHD is transitioning away from paper-based referral pathways.
Electronic referrals will be the preferred method for submitting and managing referrals for services mentioned below as well as the current list of services across SESLHD already accepting eReferrals.
The below services are now accepting eReferrals:
| SESLHD Ophthalmology Services | SESLHD Tuberculosis Chest clinics |

eReferrals are electronic forms submitted through your practice software via HealthLink or via MyHealthLink portal. Upon launching Healthlink, access to eReferrals for SESLHD services can be found by selecting: NSW Health Outpatient Referrals – South Eastern Sydney LHD
All referrals will now be processed through the Electronic Referral Management System (eRMS), which offers a more streamlined, efficient, and secure way to manage referrals across these services.
