General practitioners can now access a streamlined and efficient process for referring patients for mental health and alcohol and other drugs (AOD) care, thanks to the new online portal launched by Murrumbidgee Primary Health Network.
MPHN’s updated Central Access and Navigation (CAN) offers secure messaging, making it easier for all healthcare professionals to send and track patient information.
Conveniently accessible via the MPHN website, MPHN CEO Stewart Gordon said portal will significantly simplify the referral process as it “accelerates processes and enhances efficiency and response times.”
