Open Referrals Analysis

ENSURE

your patients are safe

IDENTIFY

cohorts at risk of clinical harm

CLARIFY

which patients require a further activity

ASCERTAIN

the current status of all patients

AVOID

unexpected waiting times breaches

Lost Referrals present risk to the Trust as they could result in:

Clinical harm occurring if the patient does not receive the treatment required
Patient complaints if their care is compromised or delayed
Waiting times breaches, for example, 52-week ‘pop-ons’

As such, it is essential that Trusts have visibility of the true status of all Open Referrals.

Source Groups Open Referrals Analysis provides you with visibility of lost referrals ensuring your patients do not come to clinical harm due to loss of visibility of the referral.

Source Group's Open Referrals Analysis will identify

Lost referrals at risk

of clinical harm

Discharged referrals where the

referral requires closing

The analysis will cohort potential lost referrals by level of clinical risk to ensure patients at greatest risk of clinical harm can be addressed as a priority.

The Trust will be provided with a comprehensive report on the status of the Trust’s open referrals. Cohorts will be stratified according to clinical risk to ensure patients at greatest risk of clinical harm can be addressed as a priority. Record level information will be provided to the Trust according to these cohorts, so that immediate action can be taken on the records.
