Getting it Right First Time. How a Pandemic Improved service provision for orthopaedic patients

Abstract

In this paper we discuss how the recent outbreak corona virus provided an opportunity to review the referral system and introduce a method of reducing total number of referrals and number of inappropriate referrals. By introducing this, we were able to reduce costs, optimise PCC and ensure patients are being managed appropriately.
