What is on the form

  • Practice letterhead, date and reference
  • Patient: name, date of birth, MRN and address
  • Visit date, specialty and subject
  • Presenting complaint
  • Assessment
  • Plan
  • Follow-up
  • Sign-off: name, qualifications and Irish Medical Council number

Using it well

  • Write it for the reader it goes to: plainer language for the patient, more detail for the GP.
  • Put the follow-up date and who books it in the last section.

Less paperwork to fill in at all.

In Ask Brigid, consult dictation returns a transcript in the patient record for you to review, next to the diary and the inbox. Practice management for private consultants.
