Notes

Overview

This referral form is intended for Pediatric Neurology consultations in hospital and community settings
Formatting and style is intended to be consistent across all specialties to reduce cognitive loads
The number of mandatory fields is limited to reduce administrative burdens.

X

Notes

Patient Information

These fields are auto-populated when referral is initiated from an integrated Electronic Medical Record (EMR) or Hospital Information System (HIS).

X

Notes

Additional Patient Information

This section is optional for referrers to complete
Referring providers should use their judgement to determine if any of these fields should be completed. Some fields will auto-complete if launched from an integrated EMR or HIS.

X

Notes

Urgency

Referrals are considered routine by default
“Urgent Referral” checbox should be used to indicate when a patient needs urgent care.
If a referral is marked as urgent, then a “Reason for Urgency” must be provided to explain why.
Note that the consulted provider will still triage the referral urgency based on the information provided.

X

Concerns and Indications

This list is intended to:

Facilitate referral form completion by providing the most common reasons for referral
Facilitate specialist triaging by improving referral clarity
Allow for addition of clinical guidance (where applicable)
Allow for specific follow up questions to assist triage (where applicable)
Allow eReferral platforms to identify which providers accept referrals for specific conditions since specialists may remove concerns and indications they do not see.

This list is not meant to be a comprehensive list of all conditions within a specialty, and an “Other” option is provided
A generic referral form is available that uses free-text instead of a list for specialists that prefer this option.
