Hospital Referrals

Family practitioners' referrals to hospital are of increasing interest. This book is the first to cover all the major areas relevant to hospital referral, including collection and analysis of data about referrals, auditing referrals, improving communication between family practitioners and hospital doctors, and developing and evaluating referral guidelines. The book will be of interest to family practitioners, public health physicians and to health service managers who need to understand how to interpret variability in referral patterns, and how to assess the effectiveness of the referral process. This book is extensively referenced, and each chapter is written by an expert in the field.
