What is the NSW State-wide Referral Criteria (SRC)?

State-wide referral criteria (SRC) are clinical decision-support tools that give health professionals the referral criteria they need to refer their patients to public specialist outpatient services across NSW.

SRC helps people who need to see a health professional in a NSW public specialist outpatient service to be referred and prioritised in a safe and timely way. They support patients and the health professionals looking after them to make a referral and assist NSW public specialist outpatient services with screening and triaging these referrals. Please visit the NSW Health website for more information.

Information sessions are being held on the implementation of Ophthalmology and Gastroenterology SRC for NSW public outpatient services on 10th, 16th and 24th August.
