Patient referrals

HCA is the world’s largest private hospital group. Our UK centres across London and Manchester have more ‘Outstanding’ CQC ratings than any other independent acute provider.

We offer specialist services and clinical expertise, and all of our main hospitals have Level 2 and 3 adult intensive care units with critical care staff on-call to provide 24/7 care.

There are various ways you can contact us for fast-track enquiries and referrals. We provide clear and transparent quotes.

Information and advice for individuals who refer patients to HCA UK for procedures using ionising radiation. This includes guidance for Medical referrers who are GMC registered and Non-medical referrers who are not GMC registered.

For peace of mind, you and your patients can learn more about our increased quality and safety protocols to keep them safe.

For quick, convenient referrals – named and unnamed – contact our Relationship Manager team. They liaise and work with GPs, physiotherapists, consultants, their secretaries and patients to provide appointments at our hospitals and outpatient centres. They’re on hand to help refer your patients to the correct specialist and provide a seamless service. 

The service provides you with:

• Fast access to appointments with our specialists and assistance with follow-ups
• One point of contact – they’ll look after the rest
• Help with any queries about facilities and services 
• Peace of mind knowing that your patient is being looked after.

You and your patients can use our online directory of healthcare to find the right expert for their care. You can search by speciality or condition, by HCA UK centre location or hospital, as well as view consultant profiles and reviews.

HCA UK offers a programme of free CPD accredited education seminars covering a broad range of specialities for GPs, nurses and physiotherapists. Led by our internationally respected consultants, we showcase new developments and breakthroughs in healthcare, diagnostic procedures and conditions our specialist treat. CPD certificates will be awarded to attendees at the end of the seminar.

Due to the impact of COVID-19, we’ve taken the decision to put in place precautionary measures and postpone or cancel face-to-face external meetings and events that are not business-critical or necessary for decisions about patient care. This will help to ensure the safety of you, our colleagues, consultants, visitors, patients and their families. 

For enquiries about our educational programme, practice events or to sign up for communication about upcoming events, email our Events team at events@hcahealthcare.co.uk
