Case Study: Maps Illustrate Distribution of Core Clinical Pathways

19 December 2022

Core Pathways Case Study

 

A staggering 98% of place-based commissioners have commissioned at least one of LOCSU’s core pathways with only 2% having yet to commission a service from primary eye care.

That’s one of the findings in a survey of how core LOCSU pathways have been commissioned in England.

The core LOSCU pathways focus on access to urgent eye care (MECS & CUES), end to end cataract care and glaucoma referral filtering and could be considered as the ‘foundation’ pathways on which to build a more comprehensive service.

Our case study illustrates the distribution of core clinical pathways using colour-coded maps.
