The NHS e-Referral Vision – March 2015
NHS e-Referral Service will be so simple and intuitive to use that both patients and professionals will want to use it for all transactions
and succeed in doing so, first time – every time.
Referrals throughout health and social care will be initiated and processed using modern technology.
A familiar and user-friendly interface and assisted digital support will provide ‘access for all’ and will fully support vulnerable patients,
those with disabilities and those who rely on carers and interpreters.
The HSCIC NHS e-referral team (formerly Choose and Book) started working with NHS England in 2014 looking at how we could deliver equality in healthcare, through improving accessibility of information for all patient groups.

Consulting with users
In 2014 we held consultations with organisations to find out how vulnerable patients felt we could best support them (through workshops, discussions and surveys): These organisations included:• The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King’s Lynn NHS Foundation Trust• Darlington Deaf Centre• Safer Places, Harlow and Essex• London Connect• Sense, the deafblind charity• East Kent Patient Participation Groupos• The WI• City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council• Locally delivering your NHS across North Derbyshire• Strategic Disability Partnership• North Derbyshire CCG• 21st Century Lay Reference Group• The learning disabilities Steering Group• Northumberland Low Vision Action Group
