Please be aware that the way MSK CATS (Musculoskeletal Clinical Assessment and Treatment Service) referrals are handled has changed.
๐๏ธ Since the end of March, our service now works through triage first โ meaning we assess your referral before inviting you to book an appointment.
๐ What you need to know:
- Ignore MSK updates on the NHS App โ these are not accurate for the service, and we are unable to change them.
- You will NOT receive a โChoose & Bookโ letter: please donโt worry if you donโt get one. They will contact you directly.
- After triage, youโll be placed on a waiting list.
- Within 4 weeks, you will be sent a text message (don't forget to update your current mobile number) or a letter in the post asking you to contact them to book your appointment.
