Enhancing referral efficiency: Consultmed now integrated with Best Practice

General practitioners in the Murrumbidgee region can now benefit from a more efficient and streamlined process for referring patients to mental health and alcohol and other drugs (AOD) services.

This is made possible by the Murrumbidgee Central Access and Navigation Service, which introduced a new digital referral portal last year, delivered by Consultmed.

This user-friendly platform simplifies the traditionally time-consuming referral process with an intuitive, easy-to-complete online form, ensuring faster and more secure submissions.

We are pleased to announce that Consultmed is now integrated with Best Practice via Halo Connect, allowing GPs to seamlessly import patient health information directly into the platform.

This integration eliminates manual data entry, enhances data security through encryption and secure transfer protocols, and reduces administrative workload.

With real-time referral tracking, secure messaging, and faster processing, this integration not only improves efficiency but also enhances patient care.

For step-by-step instructions on integrating Consultmed with Best Practice please check this installation guide or watch a short video.
