Hospital Bloods – 21/12/2022

 

Primary care phlebotomy services are funded for General Practice needs, and those patients being treated under a Shared Care arrangement.

We’ve had an increasing number of patients trying to use our services for Hospital Bloods. Please note that practices aren’t obliged to pick up secondary care phlebotomy as this reduces our capacity to undertake work that we need to do to care for our patients.

Patients should be using the relevant hospital bloods service.
