The referral pathway

Understand each stage before moving forward.

International care depends on clinical suitability, provider availability, documentation, cost, travel requirements, and informed patient consent.

01

Initial enquiry

We understand the type of specialist support being considered, the patient’s location, and any existing clinical recommendation.

02

Appropriate document pathway

If clinical records are needed, secure sharing instructions are provided after the first conversation.

03

Provider and pathway coordination

Potential options are explored according to clinical suitability, availability, documentation, and provider acceptance.

04

Cost and next-step communication

Available pathways, known costs, requirements, and limitations are communicated before proceeding.

05

Travel and treatment logistics

Where required, Synapse helps coordinate practical arrangements while the relevant authorities retain control of travel and visa decisions.

06

Follow-up coordination

Communication and practical next steps can be coordinated across the patient, family, and involved professionals.

Destinations

Options are matched to the request—not assumed in advance.

Synapse can explore eligible referrals involving the UK, USA, Canada, and other countries. A destination is considered only when it is relevant and feasible for the individual case.

No guaranteed acceptance

Hospitals and specialists make their own clinical and administrative decisions. Synapse cannot guarantee admission, treatment, timing, or outcomes.

Travel decisions remain external

Visa, immigration, and entry decisions belong to the relevant authorities. Coordination support is not a promise that travel permission will be granted.
