How we Onboard Patients
Here's a breakdown of how our system works:
Booking System and Pre-Assessment and Treatment Information
- Patients visit our website and create an account to access our services.
- Through our website, patients can book appointments and make payments.
- Available time slots are based on clinician availability and service type.
- Patients have the option to pay upfront or in installment payments.
- Patients receive automated email reminders and updates leading up to their appointment, providing necessary information to assist them.
- Patients are required to complete pre-assessment and treatment information, including a patient information form, GP notes, ID checks, and screening forms.
- Our trained contact center is available to answer any questions patients may have during the process.
- Once patients submit their completed forms, the records are automatically sent to the clinician and administrative personnel for review prior to the appointment.
Compliance
Ensuring patient safety during treatment is of utmost importance. To achieve this, we require the following:
Prescriptions
Before issuing any new medication prescriptions, we need GP notes. If a patient refuses to provide this information, we will discharge them back to their GP with a letter. Clinicians should share their personal identification number (PIN) with us to facilitate the delivery of the appropriate stationery for prescription writing.
ID Checks
During the appointment, we conduct ID checks and request patients to provide a photo ID in the Patient Information Form. To verify their identity, we ask questions related to their date of birth, postcode, and physical appearance.
Treatment Pathway
Administrative personnel validate and check forms to prepare for assessments. They may also assist consultants with assessments, reports, and scheduling future treatments.
Teams and Zoom
We utilize Microsoft Teams for internal calls and Zoom for patient calls, as it integrates seamlessly with our systems and offers easy access for all. Our team ensures there are no overlapping calls and can acquire additional licenses if needed.
Clinician Working Times and Chargable Times
If clinicians need to make changes to their working times, they should email mysec@medisec.org.uk and management@healthchoicesglobal.net. This allows both our contact center and central team to take appropriate action.
Patient Feedback Forms
After the assessment, automated feedback forms are sent to our inbox and allocated to the respective patient account.
For any questions or to reach out to our teams, please call us at 0333 3390115 or email management@healthchoicesglobal.net. Our contact center is available to support not only patients but also our staff, so please don't hesitate to get in touch.
We are excited to work together and look forward to your valuable contributions.

Patient Prescription Process and Form

- Save the document as a PDF and send it digitally to the patient and our operations team at management@healthchoicesglobal.net. Our team will handle the information appropriately and address any patient inquiries.
Now, let's move on to the process for controlled drugs:
- Similar to general prescriptions, discuss the available treatment options and potential side effects with the patient. Document this information for the patient's reference.
- As a clinician with a PIN number, our team will provide you with secure hold prescriptions. Complete the prescription on the provided pad, including all necessary information and your signature.
- The Patient Information form will indicate the patient's chosen pharmacist. Place the prescription in an envelope, addressing it to the pharmacist and including all relevant details. Ensure to scan or take an image of the prescription for record-keeping purposes and send it to our operations team.
- Send the prescription via registered next day post using Royal Mail. You can either book the collection online from your home or take it to the post office.
- After posting, retain the tracking receipt and share it with our team.
