Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study will use surveys within primary and secondary care to explore referral patterns and healthcare professional (HCP) decision-making and advice for haematological malignancies, identify inequalities, and establish best practice for CLL referrals and specialist support. The project will allow us to understand and 'map' variations in practice across the West Midlands region with regard to referrals for CLL from primary care physicians to haematology services in secondary care. Specific objectives are to: 1. Identify service variations by using surveys to assess differences in CLL service provision across primary and secondary care in the West Midlands 2. Investigate service variations by describing the key characteristics of responding primary care practices (practice size, number of GPs, Integrated Care Board (ICB) locality, deprivation quartile) 3. Propose strategies to improve equity that will enhanced patient outcomes and reduce inequalities in care for CLL patients, aiming to ensure consistent standards for referral and management across different care settings.
