Smart Referrals are digital referrals integrated with Best Practice and Medical Director software to enable faster, streamlined referrals to Queensland public hospitals.
Smart Referrals make it quicker and easier for General Practitioners (GPs) to refer their patients for specialist outpatient services ensuring referrals will be sent to the right place, first time and with all the essential referral information needed to accurately categorise as per Metro South Health Refer Your Patient website.

Smart Referrals ultimately provides digital capacity to facilitate the seamless receipt, registration and triage of specialist outpatient referrals allowing for improved referral communication, workflow efficiency, and streamlined processing.
Smart Referrals are a Queensland Health initiative and an important step in digital healthcare, creating a connected modern health system for Queenslanders. Smart referrals are a Queensland Health initiative. Brisbane South GPs can use smart referrals to refer not only to Metro South Health but also Mater, Children’s Health Queensland and most neighbouring Hospital and Health Services.
