Nhs Lanarkshire Patient Access Policy
NHS LANARKSHIRE PATIENT ACCESS POLICY 1. BACKGROUND NHS Lanarkshire is required by Scottish Government to deliver a consistent, safe, equitable and patient centred service to Lanarkshire patients within national waiting time standards. The current waiting time standards are: • 12 weeks for new outpatient appointment • 6 weeks for the eight diagnostic tests and investigations • 18 weeks Referral to Treatment for 90% of patients • The legal 12 week Treatment Time Guarantee NHS Lanarkshire is required from 1 October 2012 to comply with the Patient Rights (Scotland) Act 2011 that places a legal responsibility on the NHS Board to ensure that all patients due to receive planned treatment on a day case or inpatient basis receive treatment within 12 weeks of the patient agreeing to the treatment. The Patient Access Policy sets out the approach that NHS Lanarkshire will follow to book outpatient, day case, inpatient and diagnostic appointments, what patients can expect in terms of advance notification and the number and type of offers of appointment they can expect to receive. It describes the locations from which services are routinely delivered by NHS Lanarkshire. The Patient Access Policy also sets out the implications to the patient of cancelled appointments and also non-attendance at clinic and /or treatment. In addition, it describes actions available to patients when they are dissatisfied with the service that they receive. NHS Lanarkshire is committed to improving the patient journey and patient experience through improved process, effective use of new technology and through maximising available capacity. Effective communication with patients is essential to achieving that and NHS Lanarkshire will use all available options including letter, email and text to keep in contact with patients. -

The Academy of Medical Royal Colleges was commissioned by Scottish Government to ascertain the causes for the data issues in NHS Lothian. The review findings were published 26 June 2018. 2) Since 3 March 2015, the Scottish Government (SG) has released Official Statistics weekly A&E activity and waiting times information for the EDs in Scotland, derived from aggregate information supplied by NHS Boards on the number of attendances and 4, 8, and 12 hour waits. PHS (formally ISD) took over this data collection for statistics covering the week ending 7 June 2015. 3) From 20 May 2018, Raigmore hospital in NHS Highland trialled a new patient flow system. As a consequence the accuracy of some patients’ waits may have been affected between this date and 4 July, however the total number of attendances remains correct. -
