Overview
The Radiology Service at Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (GHFT) provides a comprehensive range of diagnostic and interventional imaging procedures. A core element of this service is the delivery of accurate and timely diagnostic reports for acute and elective patients, which is essential to enable precise diagnosis and effective treatment planning across a wide spectrum of medical conditions.
Since May 2015, GHFT has utilised external reporting provision to supplement in-house capacity and ensure reporting times are maintained within nationally recognised standards. This outsourcing support has been critical in reducing delays in patient care, improving efficiency within elective reporting, and supporting the Authority in managing sustained increases in demand in a safe and sustainable way.
