Gold Coast Health has changed the way they manage referrals.
Smart Referrals is now the preferred method of making a referral into Gold Coast Health outpatient clinics for practices using Medical Director and Best Practice.
The new platform provides all the criteria required for the specialty clinic and allows documents to be attached and sent with the referral. You can also track the referral status and receive more communications via electronic transmission.
Nurse Practitioners and Midwives in general practice, who have a provider number, can also use Smart Referrals.
If you have not had Smart Referrals installed, please contact our General Practice Liaison Unit who can assist you with installation and training GCGPLU@health.qld.gov.au
For practices using clinical software that is not compatible with Smart Referrals alternatives for sending referrals include

Please do not email any referrals to Gold Coast Health as this process is no longer supported.
Urgent referrals should always be marked as such so they can be prioritised.
