Fracture Liaison Service

Summary

Referrals come in from virtual fracture clinics, orthopaedics and acute trauma centres. Nurses in the Fracture Liaison Service would need to phone patients twice throughout their patient pathway, a process that was time-consuming and inefficient. Using Isla, these phone calls can be replaced by digital forms sent to the patients.

Benefits & savings

Using Isla to send patients forms to fill out saves 30 minutes for each patient that is assessed, avoiding a phone conversation.

For every 43 patients who replied over one month resulted in a cost saving of £5,500.

Reduced travel time for F2F appointments, allows greater patient autonomy and input

What our users think

“This saves 30 mins for each patient that is assessed. It is a whole conversation that I do not need to have. They are welcome to get in touch with me if they want to. I use the information I get from ISLA and check it against medical records and then I can FRAX the patient I then order all the tests and send a GP letter with the plans and frax results. So ultimately it saves me a 30 min conversation.”
