Description

HealthPathways Melbourne is a clinical management and referral resource designed for use during consultations. It gives clinicians a single website to access clinical referral pathways and resources. HealthPathways Melbourne is available to clinicians working in the North Western Melbourne and Eastern Melbourne Primary Health Network catchments.

Each ‘pathway’ provides clear and concise guidance for assessing and managing a patient with a particular symptom or condition. Pathways also include information about making referrals to services in the local health system.

Each pathway is evidence-informed, but also reflects local conditions, and aims to preserve clinical autonomy and patient choice. HealthPathways programs are developed by primary health networks across Australia for their region.

The goals of HealthPathways Melbourne are to:

  • Enhance clinical knowledge and promote best-practice care
  • Reduce the number of patients referred to specialist care who could be managed in a primary and/or community care setting
  • Build collaboration and reduce fragmentation across the health service network
  • Improve health outcomes by enabling consumers to access to the right care, in the right place, at the right time.
