Managing your health online
Online triage at a GP involves a patient submitting their symptoms or requests through an online form instead of calling. A trained member of staff reviews the submission to assess the urgency and determine the most appropriate care, such as booking a face to face or phone appointment, providing healthcare advice, or referring to another service.
