The NNSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD, "the LHD") is increasingly digitising its services and offerings, including exploring the use of electronic referrals ("eReferrals") as an alternative to faxed and paper referrals between GPs and LHD services, and the ability for LHD clinics to send GP updates about a referral's status via secure messaging.

The NNSWLHD is inviting GPs to complete this survey so the LHD can:
  • Understand GPs' referral patterns, perspectives and preferences for referrals to the LHD;
  • Better meet GPs' referral needs; and
  • Help identify any issues with respect to referrals to the LHD.

We will not share your name or details with anyone. We would like your name and/or practice so we can follow up any issues you might have or to clarify answers.

Thanks for your valuable time.
