How to be referred to the telemedicine program
The PACE IBD telemedicine program accepts referrals from physicians and nurse practitioners for the following reasons:
- to assist with the diagnosis of IBD,
- to assume ongoing IBD management, or
- for a second opinion regarding treatment and care of IBD
Along with the completed referral form, the referring health care provider should include:
- recent medical imaging results
- endoscopy and surgical reports
- relevant lab work
The referral form and supporting documents should be faxed to the IBD Telemedicine: 416-586-5971 or emailed to PaceIBD.MSH@SinaiHealth.ca
