  • Letter-From-Moorfields-Hes.Pdf
    Moorfields at City Road 162 City Road London EC1V 2PD Tel: 020 7253 3411 29th January 2020 Dear Optometrists, 1. Moorfields A&E has seen a significant rise in patients being sent from community optometrists, often from very long distances, where closer emergency ophthalmic provision is available. In many cases, patients are sent to A&E without any discussion or referral letter. An internal audit revealed that 40% of emergency referrals to A&E do not require an A&E attendance. 2. We have also seen a large rise in Optometrist referrals (GOS-18) to GPs asking for 1-2 week appointments which GPs are unable to obtain. These patients are frequently sent to A&E, which then doubles the cost to CCGs (as the A&E attendance and subsequent clinic review are both charged for separately). Such cases are usually inappropriate for A&E review. Should you need to make such a request, please do not send them to A&E. It is usually better to telephone your local eye unit and ask for the most appropriate pathway for the patient (e.g. AMD, Glaucoma Pathway etc). 3. As it is local CCGs who foot the bill for such attendances, we will need to feedback directly to them. Please remember that A&E is for genuine and potentially sight threatening emergencies only. 4. We have also seen an increase in patients being sent to us while already under the care of other units requesting second opinions. We do not offer second opinions in the A&E department, and as such, patients will be reverted back to the original referrer.
