E-referrals is the future of healthcare and we at Beacon Hospital are delighted to have been on of the first hospitals to offer this service to GPs referring patients to our hospital.

Referrals can now be sent directly from the GPs practice management system to Beacon Hospital. E-referrals are a secure, quick and cost-effective method of referring your patients to Beacon Hospital with minimal administration required. E-referrals can be sent while the patient is in consultation and in many cases, you may receive confirmation of their appointment before they leave the surgery. 

A copy of the referral and of the appointment confirmation are automatically saved into your patient’s files and eliminates the need for you to save copies of referral letters and manually add them to your system. 

E-referrals are very easily set up and operate through Healthlink which is a secure and trusted system. See below links to download instructions for setting your practice up for e-referrals. Should you require any further assistance, please contact your GP Liaison Executive who will be happy to help.
