‘Virtual locum’ NHS consultant capacity available
Did you know our network remote NHS consultants can deliver Advice & Guidance on local referral systems (e.g. e-RS) plus triage and validate referrals, reducing waiting lists by a third on average?
Enhanced Advice & Guidance
Supported by the National Consultant Network, our Enhanced Advice & Guidance service consists of Telephone Advice & Guidance, Photo Messaging Advice & Guidance, and Email Advice & Guidance, as well as Referral Triage and Validation for areas with high backlogs.
Advice and Refer
Advice and Refer by Consultant Connect links our Enhanced A&G platform, which is already used by over half the NHS, with the e-RS referrals system. It is the easiest, most seamless way to review a patient’s case and, if necessary, refer that patient to a local clinic.
National Consultant Network (NCN)
The National Consultant Network comprises out-of-area NHS consultants who can answer pre-referral Advice & Guidance calls or review photos and messages. The consultants can act as a backup for local teams and provide locally unavailable specialties.
Referral Triage and Validation
NHS consultant capacity to triage backlogs and temporarily support with restoration of services.
Telemedicine Devices
State-of-the-art virtual care devices allow NHS specialists to be fully available in the care of patients, without having to be physically at the bed side.
Patient Initiated Follow up (PIFU)
A follow-up service that enables patients to initiate an IG-secure virtual consultation with a specialist clinician. All data and call recordings are available via Consultant Connect in your browser.
Virtual consultations (Patient Connect)
