From December 2022, the RNOH Neuro-urology service committed to using ‘PATHPOINT’, an electronic referral and pathway management system, for all Consultant-led referrals from secondary and tertiary care organisations. 

General Practitioners should continue to refer to RNOH using the UK Electronic Referral System (ERS)- please see below. 

PATHPOINT offers significant benefits to referrers: 

  • Secure, streamlined, electronic referral forms 
  • Receive updates and notifications in real time 
  • Increased visibility of all referrals and triage outcomes
