Medical handovers – directly from the consultation.
Referrals are a critical part of coordinated care. Yet today, they are often delayed, incomplete, or administratively burdensome. With Recnote, we reimagine the referral process to make it fast, structured, and secure – all while freeing up time for clinicians.
What is a referral?
A medical referral is a formal request from one healthcare provider to another for a patient to be assessed, investigated, or treated. It must contain accurate, relevant, and well-structured clinical information to ensure quality and continuity of care.
