Frequently Asked Questions

Rapid Access Chest Pain Clinic

Are patients on the GP to intervention via Rapid Access Chest Pain Clinic (RACPC) pathway considered 'urgent' at all stages and therefore not appropriate to give them 21 days notice of appointments and admissions?
Patients going through RACPC to intervention are 'urgent' and therefore the 'reasonable offer' as defined by New Ways would be inappropriate. RACPC patient can be identified on the New Ways dataset under WT4 Waiting Time Standard Applied.
