EMIS eRS Referrals Guidelines.

    The Advice and Guidance (A&G) facility available on eRS 

   provides primary care with access to specialist clinical advice
   that enables patient care to be managed in the most appropriate setting

   and avoids unnecessary outpatient activity.

 

   This digital communication allows the clinician to seek advice from another clinician

    prior to or instead of referral.

    Reasons why a clinician may wish to seek advice and guidance include:

 

   •  Asking another clinician or specialist for their advice on a treatment plan;

   •  Asking for clarification regarding a patient’s test results;

   •  Seeking advice on the appropriateness of a referral;

   •  Identifying the most clinically appropriate service to refer a patient into.

 

 

 

    A&G can be found by selecting eRS

   drop down that is found on the top LHS of the screen

   “*Request type” .

     Selecting “Advice”
