Primary Care
Creating seamless pathways for referring clinicians
At Medbelle, our purpose is to bridge the gaps in the UK’s fragmented healthcare system.
Together with clinical providers, we can provide clarity, support and transparency to guide patients smoothly through their treatment journey.
Who we partner with
Physiotherapists
Physiotherapists, chiropractors and their clinical colleagues refer patients to Medbelle when a need for surgical investigation is identified. Medbelle assists these self-funding patients with finding the most suitable consultant and facilitates the pathway from referral through to recovery. We ensure continuity of care by referring the patient back to their original physiotherapist for post-op or non-invasive care.
Imaging and diagnostic providers
Imaging and diagnostics providers collaborate with Medbelle to ensure a smooth end-to-end healthcare journey for their patients. Medbelle ensures medical scans and supporting radiographer reports are available to consultants during consultation, providing patients with a smooth and supported pathway from diagnostics to treatment.
Virtual GPs
Virtual GP practices collaborate closely with Medbelle to streamline patient access to elective, secondary care. Our partners leverage our digital platform, ensuring seamless transitions and personalised support for patients from GP to surgical specialist, ensuring patients receive fast access to diagnosis and reduce the impact of illness-related stress.
Benefits for partners
A Referral Ecosystem
Primary care partners benefit from a quick and simple referral process to Medbelle, streamlining admin and removing the need for pen-and-paper referrals. The digital system promotes our partners and their clinics, supporting clinicians in expanding their professional networks, forging new connections and integrating care provision via our Medbelle OS technology.
Continuity of Care for Patients
We facilitate seamless transitions between primary and secondary care providers, ensuring consistent and coordinated pathways for self-funding patients. Medbelle’s partner portal keeps referrers in the loop about the onward journey of their referred patients. The transparency and collaborative care enabled, enhances the overall healthcare experience for their patients.
Autonomy and Obligation Free
We empower primary care partners to maintain control over their practice by providing streamlined, comprehensive solutions. While there's no obligation to send or receive referrals, you can trust in improved patient-centric pathways that prioritise both you and our shared patients within a transparent and efficient care model.
Why is partnership work important?
Healthcare is a complex industry relying on many specialists working together - but it is often so fragmented they can't collaborate efficiently.
Medbelle joins different parts of the patient's care pathway up seamlessly, making care more effective and more efficient.
Suchada Thongnam needed knee surgery urgently during a trip to the UK. She got in touch with Medbelle partners the Doctors Clinic Group, who quickly referred her to Medbelle, who arranged her surgery within a month. This seamless partnership meant that Suchada could access fast treatment with a minimum of stress.

One of Medbelle's unique benefits is the way we join up the entire healthcare pathway. This makes healthcare seamless for patients and helps clinicians to collaborate to improve patient care.
