Red tape challenge - patients and the public

The Secretary of State for Health and Care, Wes Streeting, and the Chief Executive of NHS England, Amanda Pritchard, have announced a rapid review of how care is coordinated between different parts of the health service. This includes:​​
how referrals are made and managed, including waiting lists​
how patients are discharged from hospital or other care providers such as mental health or community services​
how the different parts of the health service communicate safely and effectively with each other and with patients​
​We know that things are not as smooth as they could be, and this review is an opportunity to better understand and find potential solutions to some of the problems. We would like to get your perspective on what’s working well, what is working less well, and what you think could be done differently.

Please click the link below to fill out the survey. The closing date for the survey is 16 December 2024.
