Notes

Urgency

Referrals are considered routine by default
“Urgent Referral” checbox should be used to indicate when a patient needs urgent care.
If a referral is marked as urgent, then a “Reason for Urgency” must be provided to explain why.
Note that the consulted provider will still triage the referral urgency based on the information provided.

Concerns and Indications

This list is intended to:

Facilitate referral form completion by providing the most common reasons for referral
Facilitate specialist triaging by improving referral clarity
Allow for addition of clinical guidance (where applicable)
Allow for specific follow up questions to assist triage (where applicable)
Allow eReferral platforms to identify which providers accept referrals for specific conditions since specialists may remove concerns and indications they do not see.

This list is not meant to be a comprehensive list of all conditions within a specialty, and an “Other” option is provided
A generic referral form is available that uses free-text instead of a list for specialists that prefer this option.

Brief Description

This mandatory field is meant to describe the relevant patient information, which may include the current history, management, investigations, or expectations of the referral.
