Administrative letters from approved templates

Draft routine administrative letters, such as referral acknowledgements, appointment confirmations and records-request replies, from approved templates and the details already on file, so staff review and send them instead of typing each one.

Where it starts

The trigger.

An administrative event that needs a letter, such as a new referral, a booked appointment or a records request.

How it runs today

  • Staff type routine letters by hand or copy old ones and edit them.
  • Wording varies and old templates stay in use after policies change.
  • Letters wait in a backlog behind more urgent work.

The workflow

Four bounded steps.

Each step has an owner and a stop rule.

  1. 01 / Collect

    Pull the details the letter needs from the scheduling or records system.

  2. 02 / Draft

    Fill an approved template with those details, with no clinical content or advice.

  3. 03 / Review

    A staff member checks the details and wording and approves the letter.

  4. 04 / Send

    The approved letter is sent and a copy is filed with the record.

Where people stay in control

Approval points.

  • Staff approve every letter before it is sent.
  • Letters contain no clinical content, diagnosis or advice.
  • Templates are approved by the appropriate lead, and access follows the organisation’s privacy and security rules.

How we would measure it

Against a baseline.

Measured before and after, on the same work.

Time from event to letter sent.

Letters needing correction before sending.

Staff time spent on routine letters each week.
