Clinics Dispensed Clinic (New Clinic)

[Lank72]

I've been through onboading with 2 clinics, and with both I had medication in hand by the timelines you've already been waiting @marciomvm

That sounds a long time for a multi disciplinary team to meet and review this as most clinics do this within a day or a few days usually at most and I can only assume this is because they are just getting up to speed as a clinic but this does not help you in the slightest .

Also thinking about it since the 13th this will be the sixth working day since then so maybe it is not so far behind schedule as first appears and I'd hope this will be sorted in the next day or so you can receive your meds soon as and in theory going forward you would not face this delay again as this team meets to approve new patients and sometimes if alterations to amounts a patient is requiring changes .

Im wondering if it's due to clinic size?

I'm assuming they've not got many new patients to warrant weekly MDT checks.

I imagine they need to get all these MDT panel docs together and that means paying them (from what I understand most doctors are just contracted and don't work for the clinic itself) so to limit costs I can see a fortnightly MDT taking place, especially if it's the early days.

That said, all this is speculation so take it with a massive pinch of salt.

They took a few days to reply to my simple question email too, the reply also was just so thrown together, felt quite off.
