NHS Lanarkshire News

NHS Scotland,Digital And Media,Technology

All patients in NHS Lanarkshire who are on a waiting list for an orthopaedic, endoscopy or dermatology appointment or procedure will get a text message from the National Elective Coordination Unit (NECU).

NHS Scotland is rolling out a new text message service to make sure that their waiting lists are up to date - and check whether Lanarkshire patients still need their appointments or surgery.

Get all the news from your area – as well as features, entertainment, sport and the latest on Lanarkshire’s recovery from the coronavirus pandemic – straight to your fingertips, 24/7. People who are answering the survey on behalf of someone else must provide the patient’s details at this stage.
