Waiting List Validation
NHSScotland is using a new text message service to ensure our patient waiting lists are up to date and that patients still need their appointments or operations.
NHS Ayrshire & Arran patients who are waiting for an operation will receive a text message from the NHSScotland National Elective Coordination Unit (NECU) on mobile number 07860 039092 with a link to answer a couple of questions that will allow us to update our records.

Patients Having Surgery Overseas
The Scottish Gvernment and NHS Scotland have issued the below guidance to all GP surgeries in Scotland.
While the NHS in Scotland will always provide emergency care where necessary, all routine pre and postoperative care should be part of the package of care purchased by the individual patient.
Ther is no obligation on NHS boards to provide such routine pre and postoperative care. (Blood tests, dressings, other tests, ECGs stc).
In the event of a patient advising a healthcare professional of plans to travel overseas for privately arranged surgery, they should be advised firstly that this is not recommended, and secondly that there will be no obligation on their local NHS Board to provide routine pre and postoperative care.
All care required should be provided within the package of care sold by the overseas provider.
Thank you for your understanding of the above.
