FOREWORD

The Department of Health (DOH) Regional Office No.VII is committed in fulfilling its thrusts relative
to the implementation of [Aquino Health Agenda/ Universal Health Care/ Kalusugan Pangkalahatan].
One of these primary thrusts is the [exercise of technical authority/ provision of technical assistance]
in putting in place [good governance in health/ good governance practices] as one of the vital
components that the local health system requires.
We, as an organization, sees the impact of the fragmentation of local health services leading to the
deterioration of integrative approaches to health care delivery system and quality of local health
services. These services would include the management of the referral system, which by its very
nature requires good coordination and cooperation in the delivery of health services at all levels.
We recognize that for Central Visayas, this is a huge task for us considering the existence of various
social, political and geographical factors. Moreover, we cannot continue to work effectively in a
situation where there is a break in the chain of integration of the Region's health care delivery system.
It is the goal of the Regional Office to rationalize the distribution and capacities of different health
facilities within the Region to provide appropriate health services, so that the poorest families would
be able to access quality and affordable health care. Most of our poor in Central Visayas go to
government-run health facilities in their time of need and they deserve no less than the best care from
our public health facilities.
The publication of this CENTRAL VISAYAS HEALTH REFERRAL SYSTEM MANUAL is a huge step towards
improving our efficiency and effectiveness through the implementation of a health referral system
that addresses the gaps and challenges relative to the appropriate approach and management of
referrals within the Region.
This Manual proposes therefore, to serve as our official reference to guide our hospitals and other
health care facilities as we continue to strive to be the technical stewards in health development. The
health referral system described in this Manual shall also further enhance the operation and
functionality of the Inter-Local Health Zone (ILHZ) System of the Region.
This document, developed in collaboration with specialists, experts, mentors and users of health
referral systems, is for the benefit of all public health practitioners.
Profound and unwavering commitment is critical for us to truly achieve Kalusugan Pangkalahatan by
2016. Its pursuit is our common goal. Therefore, let us all work together in realizing this dream for all
Filipinos!

PREFACE
Cognizant to the changes in the society and environment and the ever increasing needs of the ever
increasing population, the effects to health and health service delivery, its effect to the poor, the
vulnerable and the underprivileged will be inevitable and needs to be addressed.
The Central Visayas Health Referral System (CVHRS) Manual as with the other Health Referral System
(HRS) manuals was developed to address the challenges in implementing a HRS specifically the
disparity in matching the patients needs and linking them to the appropriate health facility.
In addressing the gap in referring patients, this manual will be used to guide healthcare workers and
other key stakeholders on the proper approach and management of referring patients and to remind
them of the ethical standards, respect, courtesy and attitude toward patients, significant others,
stakeholders in the community and their co-health workers.
Also, to bridge the gap between the preventive and curative medical services, the 3 C`s, Coordination,
Cooperation and Communication was emphasized as essential in the implementation of an effective
Health Referral System which was highlighted in our activities and in this manual. During the conduct
of the several activities of the CVHRS, a fourth C was added, Commitment, which was generally agreed
that if there is no commitment among the stakeholders the HRS won`t work. A 5th C was again added
during our M&E, Collaboration, which was evident as the monitoring team and the different
stakeholders in the health facilities conferred on the operationalization and making functional of the
CVHRS.
An innovation in the CVHRS is the ReCo Guide in Referring Patients Checklist which was created as
a result of the experiences and review in the implementation of the HRS. This is a one page step by
step procedure that will guide the referring health facilities in the mechanics and protocol of referrals
emphasizing on the mandatory requirement of making a call. ReCo is Referral/Consultation where
both parties discuss and agree on the patients diagnosis, management and disposition (whether to
manage the patient at their facility or send the patient over).
To ensure the quality and efficiency of the referrals, the stakeholders were always reminded on the
Guiding Principle in referring patients:
To Refer the Right Patient to the Right Facility at the Right Time all the Time
GRP
An interesting summary of the consolidated Issues and Concerns in the implementation of the HRS of
the different health facilities in Northern Mindanao and Central Visayas is tabulated in this manual.
This was presented during the seminars and consultative meetings, each issue and concern was
discussed, together with their respective resolve, recommendations, and agreements.
The concept and function of the ILHZ has always been emphasized, defining its role in leveraging the
delivery of health services and programs thru coordination with their LCE`s and the health personnel
with an active Local Health Board.
This manual is intended for the use of all healthcare facilities from the Barangay Health Stations, Rural
Health Units, City Health Offices, Hospitals (Government and Private) and other health facilities and
stakeholders.
A directory of the health services and facilities available in the region and other key national health
facilities and related offices is provided in this manual to guide stakeholders to identify and determine
2

the appropriate service, facility and location to respond to the health needs of the clients. Basically,
the concept of this directory is to be able match and link a health need to a facility or office in Region 7
and beyond.
One of the major concerns in the implementation of a HRS is the issue on Medico-legal Cases and
Death which have been the source of conflict among healthcare providers. Despite the previous
efforts and existing policies and guidelines, interpretation and compliance have been diverse. A
workshop, solely for this purpose was done to create for each province policies and guidelines. As
usual, as expected, heated arguments and discussions ensued, but as civilized and mature
professionals each province agreed and was able to create the expected output of the workshop. A
regional agreement was reached that unresolved cases will be referred to and decided by the
Provincial Health Officer and his/her decision will be respected.
The format of this manual was patterned from the Department of Health 2002 Manual on Health
Referral System and the NMHRS manual 1st edition.
The Central Visayas Health Referral System as with any HRS is evolving and is imbued on feedback,
cooperation, encouragement and support. As quoted, No canned health referral system will work,
but we, as a team and partners, are determined and committed to continue developing to achieve our
objective in implementing an effective CVHRS.
Hand in hand the DOH RO7 and with all our partners in health service delivery who enthusiastically
embraced the principles and concepts of the health referral system will pursue our goals.
Our resolve, to achieve our goal, to make available and accessible thru the CVHRS, Quality Health
Services especially for the poor and the underprivileged is our inspiration for the development of this
manual.

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND:

The Central Visayas Health Referral System
A cornerstone in the Health Care Delivery System is to be responsive to the health care needs of the
community providing the appropriate health services matched and linked to the right facility which is basically
the essence of the Health Referral System.
This is the challenge in implementing an effective Health Referral System that has been experienced for quite a
time specifically in public health and government health facilities due to the limited resources in terms of
infrastructure, equipment, medicine, supplies, and health human resource. In addition, the expected roles and
responsibilities of the stakeholders and the recurring issue of maintaining proper decorum has undermined
and compromised the conduct of activities of the health referral.
The devolution in 1991 played a major role in governance, and with the implementation of the Local
Government Code (LGC), broke the chain of integration of the Health Care Delivery System in the Philippines
wherein the Hospital (Curative) and Public Health (Preventive) services were administered independently.
Municipalities, cities, provinces and regions began operating separately, resulting to the further segregation of
the public health system. This fragmentation resulted to the deterioration of integrative approaches and
quality of Local Health Care Services, affecting largely the management of the Health Referral System which
requires good coordination, communication, and cooperation in the delivery of health care services at all
levels.
Several activities in the past, initiated by the DOH Regional Office 7 were done to implement the HRS but
apparently were not sustained as evidenced by our initial baseline assessment last year with regards to
functionality and effectiveness.
An initial baseline assessment on the HRS of the four provinces of Central Visayas (Region 7) were the
following:

HRS manual available in two provinces but not followed and other stakeholders are not aware
Mechanics/Protocol in referring patients not well defined
No standard/uniform referral and return form/slips
Entry in the referral logbooks needs improvement
Recording and documentation of referrals is deficient
Policies & Guidelines on Health Referral & on Medico Legal Cases & Death were either not available,
not followed, stakeholders unaware or needs refinement
Directory of health facilities and services not available or needs to be updated and broadened
Proper decorum is a common major issue and concern
Poor communication and coordination
Lack of Awareness of a HRS
Non-functioning Inter Local Health Zones, no local health board meetings.

In 2001, the National DOH HRS Manual identified as deterrents to the implementation of a functional health
referral systemthe following:
Inadequate policies and guidelines on the referral system
Poor accessibility due to geographical location
Inadequate health human resources
Inadequate logistics and technical support
Poor knowledge, attitudes, and skills among health providers

10

As stated in the DOH HRS Manual, strengthening the Health Referral System need to upgrade the Health Care
Facilitys quality of health services, optimize the use of available state of the art equipment, and enhance its
capabilities in local health planning, decision-making, and monitoring.
Thru the Health Facility Enhancement Program (HFEP) of the DOH, most if not all of the Government Health
Facilities, the Hospitals, Rural Health Units, City Health Offices, many Barangay Health Stations/Urban Health
Centers and others were upgraded in terms of infrastructure and medical equipments. This upgrading aimed
to help in providing their needs to comply with the DOH Licensing and Philhealth Accreditation to provide
standard quality health services. Also, that these facilities will be responsive to the health needs of their
catchment areas and decongest the tertiary end referral hospitals.
Presently there are already several manuals on Health Referral System (HRS) at different levels, National,
Provincial, Hospital and regional manuals including this Central Visayas Health Referral System (CVHRS)
Manual. A review of these manuals revealed that basically they have common objectives, rationales, principles
and concepts. Though they have differences in the implementation of the Health Referral System specific for
each facility or locality, the main goal of providing quality and efficient health service in referring patients is
the same.
The Department of Health Regional Office 7 has conducted a series of Seminar, Training, Workshop and
Consultative Meetings for the CVHRS in the last quarter of 2014 and in early 2015 to all the four provinces of
the region. An M&E was also done in the first quarter of 2015 to create awareness of the CVHRS and to assess
and sustain its implementation.
In all these activities, Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center (VSMMC) as the regional end referral tertiary
hospital with its experience and expertise was always available as partner to provide the general support and
assistance.
Participants of these activities were the Provincial Health Officers, Chiefs of Government Hospitals, Chief
Nurses, Administrative Officers, City and Municipal Health Officers, Public Health Nurses, Philhealth
representatives, DOH RO7 RLED and HFDS Staff and other stakeholders. The general objective was to
operationalize and make functional a health referral system in Central Visayas.
These activities covered the following topics/course content for the CVHRS: the Legal and Administrative basis,
a review of the present status of the HRS in each province, review on the basic principles and concepts of a
HRS, introduction of HRS Manuals, presentation of the DOH general policies and guidelines on Medico-legal
cases and Death, the workshop on the creation for each province policies and guidelines, presentation of the
different referral forms, logbook matrices and the monitoring tool.
One of the highlights of the CVHRS is the creation of the ReCo Guide in Referring Patients - Checklist which
is an operational guide for the referring and referred health facilities on the mechanics and protocol in the
management and approach of referred patients, matching the patients need to the right health facility. ReCo
stands for Referral Consultation, this was developed due to the previous experiences in referred hospitals or
facilities, a common inference that, had a prior call been made, and a discussion and consultation of the case
had been done, a lot of cases need not have been sent for referral because the referring facility can be advised
on the management and disposition of these patients thru phone whether it is necessary to send patient over
or manage at their facility with advise.
As agreed and emphasized, a Mandatory Call is necessary especially for hospital to hospital referral and those
emergency cases needing special care and attention with vital data and information that needs to be
transmitted.

11

Why make the call:

The patient will be thoroughly assessed for the purpose of referral

Referrals sent to other health facilities will be appropriate and properly screened because of prior
consultation and discussion
Referring facilities can be advised on the management and disposition of cases that can be treated
and managed at their level without sending patients for referral
Necessary preparations in the treatment and management of referred patients by the referring and
referral facilities can be made
Anticipated events and transport needs addressed
Savings on economic cost of unnecessary or inappropriate referrals and those managed thru phone
referrals

A major concern in the implementation of a HRS is the issue on Medico-legal Cases and Death which have
been the source of conflict among healthcare providers. Despite the previous efforts and existing policies and
guidelines, interpretation and compliance have been diverse. A workshop, solely for this purpose was done to
create for each province policies and guidelines. As usual, as expected, heated arguments and discussions
ensued, but as civilized and mature professionals each province agreed and was able to create the expected
output of the workshop.
A regional agreement was approved that unresolved cases will be referred to and decided by the Provincial
Health Officer and his decision will be respected.
Previous experiences in implementing programs and projects have taught us that if there is no follow-up or
review, this will fail. A Monitoring Tool has been developed which was based on the agreements and next
steps on what is expected of the health facility and personnel, their roles and responsibilities for a functioning
and effective CVHRS. Stressed during the visits that the purpose of the M&E was to assess the implementation
of the CVHRS and identify and address the issues and concerns in its implementation and not to criticize, point
finger or blame the facility or individual. Also, during the M&E the Plan Do Check Act method was applied and
urgent issues and concerns will be addressed and corrected immediately.
With the previous activities and experiences gathered mostly in Northern Mindanao and also in Central
Visayas in the implementation of the HRS, numerous Issues and Concerns were raised in its implementation. A
consolidated list will be presented in this manual, from the BHS, RHU`s, CHO`s, District and Provincial Hospitals
as well as the end referral hospitals together with the recommendations and resolve to address these different
issues and concerns, an output during the previous consultative meetings and HRS encounters.
Our modest experience in the various activities in the implementation of the HRS has allowed us to identify
and determine the Requisites in the Implementation of an Effective HRS which is as follows:

HRS Manual as a general guide and reference

Protocol and Mechanics in referring patients
Directory of Health Services & Facilities (List of Service Capabilities & Personnel)
Policies and Guidelines on Medico-legal Cases & Death (workshop per province)
Standard Referral Forms for uniformity
Logbooks - documentation, database, statistics, policy formulation, research
Identification of a point person for the HRS
Creation of HRS committee/team
Specified Communication
Regular Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) - mechanics, monitoring tool
Guidelines on transport of patients ambulance use, fees, etc.
ReCo Guide Checklist

12

Health Human Resources:

4 C`s Cooperation, Coordination, Communication, Commitment
>Collaboration> Convergence
Teamwork
Proper decorum
Identified Roles and Responsibilities
Competent and Trained Personnel
Documentation (for policy formulation, improvement of quality services, logbooks, reports, research,
summary etc.)
Functional Inter Local Health Zones, conduct local health board meetings.

The stakeholders have always been reminded that at the Center of all these referral activities is the Patient,
specifically the poor and underprivileged.
Our Guiding Principle in referring patients:
To refer the Right Patient, to the Right Facility, at the Right Time all the Time
GRP
In pursuing the goals and objectives of an effective HRS, we have always emphasized the pivotal role of a
functioning ILHZ, the well defined roles and responsibilities of the members and a regularly convened Local
Health Board promoting the 4C`s, Coordination, Cooperation, Communication and Commitment even adding
the 5th C, Collaboration. The Local Health Board meetings are very crucial in addressing the multifold health
problems in the ILHZ and in the effective implementation of the different health programs, the CVHRS
nonetheless.
Our resolve to make available quality health services for the poor and the underprivileged is our inspiration for
the development of this manual and the implementation of an effective Central Visayas Health Referral
System.

I. THE HEALTH REFERRAL SYSTEM

A. DEFINITION:
Section 33 of the rules and regulations implementing the Local Government Code, defined a
functional referral system as one that ensures the continuity and complementation of health and
medical services. It involves all health facilities from the lowest to the highest level. These services
shall be comprehensive and shall encompass promotive, preventive, curative, and rehabilitative
care.
DOH HRS Manual - the set of activities undertaken by a health care provider or facility in response to
its inability to provide the necessary medical intervention to respond to a patients need, whether
real or perceived. It is a regular daily activity of linking a patient to a needed service.
To be effective and successful, the networking system should have the following preconditions:
Complete trust and mutual respect among the members and willingness to cooperate
with others on equal terms
Equal sharing of responsibilities and workload based on organizational or individual
capacities and mandates
Equal access to resources
Pragmatic and realistic approach to the implementation of network activities
Strong emphasis on local or horizontal mobilization.
B. TYPES OF REFERRAL
1. INTERNAL REFERRALS- are those which take place within the health facility and from one health
personnel to another.
Reasons for referral:
Opinion or suggestion
Co-management
Further management or specialty care
2. EXTERNAL REFERRAL refers to the referral of patients from one health facility to another
a. VERTICAL - patient referral may be from a lower to a higher level of health facility and vice versa,
based on the role and responsibility of each category of health facility
b. HORIZONTAL - patient referral is between like facilities in different catchment areas.
C. FRAMEWORK FOR HEALTH REFERRAL SYSTEM
The referral system shall operate within the framework of the Inter-Local Health Zone (ILHZ):

When a patient needs expert advise
When a patient needs a technical examination that is not available at the Health Centers
When a patient requires a technical intervention that is beyond the capabilities of the
Health Center
When a patient requires in-patient care

14

D. REQUISITES FOR A FUNCTIONAL HEALTH REFERRAL SYSTEM

A well-functioning comprehensive two-way referral system shall have the following:

Defined functions and responsibilities (i.e., service mixes for each level of care)
Identified health service delivery outlets (public and private) and services provided
Agreed roles and responsibilities of key stakeholders
Agreed standard case management protocols (treatment protocols and guidelines)
Agreed referral policies, protocols, and administrative guidelines to support the health
referral system
System to supervise, monitor, and evaluate quality of care, referral practices, and
support mechanisms
Facilities and health workers capable in implementing the health referral system
Core referral hospital should have at least four major services: Medicine, Surgery,
Pediatrics, and Ob-gyn. It shall also have ancillary services (e.g., laboratory, x-ray).

FIGURE 1: OPERATIONAL FRAMEWORK

II. OPERATIONALIZING THE HEALTH REFERRAL SYSTEM

A. Steps in Setting-Up a Referral System (Please refer to the details in the DOH Manual)
1. Organizing the Referral System
The Provincial Health Officer (PHO) should initiate the idea of setting up a referral system with technical
support from the DOH. For the referral system to work, it is assumed that an Inter-Local Health Zone (ILHZ) or
its equivalent is in place, and that the ILHZ board or committee has been organized.
2. Planning for a Comprehensive Referral System
Preparatory Phase
Planning and Implementation Phase
.
3. Documentation
Considering the uniqueness of each health facility, no canned referral system can really work. It should be
made to fit the needs and resources of the locality. Innovations are also encouraged.
4. Promotion of the Health Referral System
5. Sustaining a Functional Referral System
Regular and periodic random monitoring should be conducted by the province and DOH Regional Office.
B. Referral System Flow Chart
There are several factors that affect the flow of a health referral system. It depends on the geographical
location, competencies of health personnel, availability of supplies, health facility capability, and the customs
and practices of the people.
C. Referral Procedure (After proper assessment and communication)
1. Patients coming from a referral facility shall bring with them a referral slip / note containing relevant
information
2. Once the reason(s) for the referral has been addressed, the patient shall be referred
back with a corresponding return referral slip containing relevant information
3. All referrals shall be recorded in a separate logbook specifically for health referrals (required for all health
facilities), both by the referring and receiving health facilities.
This vital information is needed for policy formulation and improvement of the quality of services rendered.
4. Patients shall be referred after the following have been satisfied:

Thorough assessment of the patient (history, PE, diagnostics)

There is a need for referral based on the guidelines
Communication and agreement with the referral facility
Conduct and needs of transport identified
Referral slip and accompanying documents accomplished
Proper documentation

25

VIII. HOSPITAL REFERRAL IN MASS CASUALTY INCIDENTS

A Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) is a major concern in hospitals, particularly in the Emergency
Department. In this situation, which happens without warning, the usual day to day functional
capability is overwhelmed to the detriment of the health service that is provided.
Vehicular accidents, which are the most common man-made disaster, involving usually a passenger
bus, can generate influx of patients affecting the hospitals response in emergencies. A large number
of victims may be involved and sum up to even a hundred or more, but these victims have different
injuries and severity also differ. As such, the importance of triaging or sorting out the victims
according to their emergency need, management and disposition, providing the appropriate
transport and identifying the right facility is crucial.
Of great importance, even at the site of the accident, is to control and know which victims need only
first aid treatment and those that needs to be sent at once to a hospital. This is to avoid the common
scenario in disasters of chaos and disarray in Emergency Rooms that even non-emergency victims
that can be treated in primary care health facilities and their relatives, crowd the ER. Patient care is
affected, resources depleted, ER operations compromised and health personnel are overwhelmed
who are also attending to the other sick patients and emergencies.
The Health Referral System, if utilized properly, matching victims with the service classification and
correlated with the Universal Triage System, will minimize and control the anticipated problems
during MCI`s.
PROCEDURE
1. All Type I and Type II patients should be transported to a Level III Hospital for complete
diagnostic service and immediate or emergent treatment.
2. All Type III patients will be referred to a Level I Hospital, for cleaning, suturing of wounds and
Stress Debriefing.
3. The usual reason of patients choice when doing unnecessary transfer of patient, is highly
discourage, and not allowable.
4. If ever the victim, relative, the offender or any responsible subject insists in doing
unnecessary transfer of their patient, they will be referred to a Private Hospital, and not to a
higher level Government Hospital.
TRIAGE CLASSIFICATION
Type I (Red Tag) - Victims whose injuries are life endangering and demand immediate
attention. These are the priority patients.
Type II (Yellow Tag) - Victims whose injuries demand definitive treatment in the hospital.
However, the said treatment may be safely delayed without prejudice to ultimate recovery.
Type III (Green Tag) - Victims whose injuries demand definitive treatment in the hospital.
However, the said treatment may be safely delayed without prejudice to ultimate recovery.
Type IV (Black Tag) - Victims who are dead.

26

IX. MONITORING AND EVALUATION

The implementation of the Central Visayas Health Referral System will be monitored and evaluated
regularly at random by the DOH RO7 Health Facility Development Section team together with
representatives from VSMMC and concerned LGU health facilities. The persons to generate referral
reports are the rural health midwife for barangay health stations; the public health nurse or the rural
health midwife for the rural health units; and the emergency room nurse and ward nurse for
hospitals or as designated by the head of facility.
Monitoring and evaluation reports shall be submitted to the area or district health team, or to the
Provincial Health Office where a Monitoring & Evaluation Team has been organized to review and
assess the conduct of implementation.
The following parameters and indicators can be used to gauge the quality of the referral system:
Efficiency (cost of referral the referral should have the least cost for the health
facilities and clients);
Effectiveness (outcome the referral should address the diagnostic and curative
requirements, prevent complications or worsening of the condition);
Accessibility (ease of referrals refers to the existing conditions i.e., transportation,
communication, etc. that would facilitate the transfer and acceptance of the client);
Appropriateness (conformity with protocol the referral facility makes justified referrals
on a timely basis);
Responsiveness (refers to the ability of the receiving facility to accept and manage
referred clients);
Good inter-personal relationship (number of actively participating facilities).
The referral system shall be tracked down through records, such as checklists, logbooks, and reports.
In particular, important information shall include the following:
Number of Patients referred;
Reasons for referral;
Reason(s) for referral;
Number and list of referring
Number and list of receiving
hospitals;
hospitals;
Leading diagnosis;
Leading Diagnosis;
Return slips sent back; and
Return slips received;
Source of referrals
Number of referrals received;
Suggested INDICATORS to gauge functional referral systems may include:
1. Rate of referrals
=
number of referrals
X 100
OPD consultations
=

Number of referrals
X 100
Number of in patients
2. Case Mix = number of cause specific case/ total number of referred cases;
3. Ten leading causes of referral;
4. Ratio of referrals with return slips = number of referrals with return slips/ total number of
referrals
Reporting:
The ILHZ or its equivalent shall analyze referral data, identify gaps, and propose recommendation(s) to improve the referral
system.
The ILHZ chief shall prepare a consolidated report and submit it to the PHO.
The PHO shall submit the consolidated reports with gap analysis and recommendations to DOH Regional Office.

THE CENTRAL VISAYAS REFERRAL AND CONSULTATION (ReCo)

GUIDE IN REFERRING PATIENTS - CHECKLIST
Guiding Principle: To Refer the Right Patient to the Right Facility at the Right Time All the Time
GRP
1. Assessment of the Patient:
Thorough History & Physical Exam
Relevant Diagnostics
Medications
Procedures and Interventions
Diagnosis/Impression
2. Need Referral: Reason for ReCo (based on HRS guidelines)
Expert assessment/advise/management
Technical intervention, examination, procedure and diagnostics
Service beyond the capability of the facility
3. Identify Health Facility for Referral
4. Communication Mandatory Requirement (a prior call should be done when making a referral after accomplishing 1&2)
**When making the call:
Identify yourself name, designation & facility
Politely inquire the name and designation of the other party
State purpose of call discuss the case, 1&2
Document phone ReCo name and designation of referred health provider, summary of referral and
disposition
5. Action and Disposition of Referral
Manage at health facility with instruction
Send patient for referral
6. Discuss and advise the action and disposition of the referral with the patient and significant others.
7. Referral/Consultation (ReCo) Guide
Transport and Destination Requirement (for referred patients)

Others needs and special instruction
8. Documentation
Accomplished standard CVHRS referral form; BEmONC/CEmONC referral form
Return slips procedures
Record in the logbook accordingly
Pertinent data and lab results
Instruction to patient/relatives
WHY MAKE THE CALL?
The patient will be thoroughly assessed for the purpose of referral
Referrals sent to other health facilities will be appropriate and properly screened because of prior
consultation and discussion
Referring facilities can be advised on the management and disposition of cases that can be treated and
managed at their level without sending patients for referral
Necessary preparations in the treatment and management of referred patients by the referring and referral
facilities can be made
Anticipated events and transport needs addressed
Savings on economic cost of unnecessary or inappropriate referrals and those managed thru phone referrals
Networking strengthened
Patient and community confidence established on the networked and coordinated healthcare delivery
system, specifically the management of patients thru the HRS
IMPORTANT REMINDERS:
**All Health workers and Stakeholders are expected to maintain proper decorum and extend utmost courtesy and respect at all times
to co-health workers, patients and significant others

**The patients interests, benefits and safety are at the CENTER of all these activities
**NB: This should be posted in the emergency room or in any conspicuous area in the health facility
