In order to refer your patients into the WFI service as a referrer you must ensure:-

The patient fulfils the eligibility criteria as set out in the IVF commissioners referral policy [CP38] which can be found at:-

Fertility - Welsh Health Specialised Services Committee (nhs.wales)

In order for your patients referral to be accepted for vetting by our clinical team you must ensure that a fully completed referral form is submitted.  For standard referrals no letter format referrals will be accepted.  If referral letters are submitted these will be automatically returned to the origin of referral and a delay may be experienced in your patients obtaining access to the service.

Referrals for consideration of self-funding treatment should also be completed via the above process.
