Finding the most appropriate service at UHB using Choose and Book
UHB has many specialist clinics, rather than general clinics, published on Choose and Book, e.g. "cataract clinic" or "glaucoma clinic", as opposed to a "general ophthalmology clinic".
SNOMED CT was introduced in June 2009 and replaced "Keyword" search. SNOMED CT allows providers to accurately define services and enables referrers to search for services more effectively.
You can use the SNOMED CT search facility on Choose and Book by typing in, for example "cataract", and a list of associated clinical terms will be displayed. If you select the chosen term the correct service will be made available to offer as a choice to your patient.
If you need help finding the most appropriate service, please call the Service Improvement Team.
