Patient Referral Process to Sports Orthopedic Center

This flowchart outlines the patient referral process from a general practitioner (HA) to a sports orthopedic center. The journey begins with the patient presenting a complaint to the HA, who selects the appropriate medical specialist care in the system (zorgdomein). If necessary, the HA refers the patient to a sports orthopedic center. After selection, the clinic staff schedules an initial consultation, often including an X-ray beforehand. The chart also highlights additional consultation options for complex cases or knee distortion, which are prioritized within a week. Designed with EdrawMax, this diagram is ideal for illustrating healthcare referral pathways.
