GP-SP Referral Process Project
In White Rock-South Surrey (WRSS), our physician members identified the GP-specialist referral process as a priority to improve. In partnership with Pathways BC, the GP-Specialist Referral Process Project team developed the Pathways Referral Tracker to improve the referral process in the community.
Pathways Referral Tracker (PRT)
The Pathways Referral Tracker is an electronic referral status and patient notification system. It allows the status of a patient’s referral to be tracked by both the GP and specialist office, from the moment the referral is sent, to after the patient is seen by the specialist. The system allows patients to confirm their appointments and sends patients pre-visit information and appointment reminders by text or email.
