Cameras In Primary Care is a project to give hi-tech instant print cameras to general practitioners in primary care in Britain and ask them to send in a photograph with all their dermatological referrals. This enables the dermatologist to dramatically improve the referral triage process and reduces the numbers of patients who have to attend the dermatology department. The scheme was devised by consultant dermatologist, Dr Alun Evans〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Welcome to Alun Evans' Dermatology Website )〕 and is taking place in the Bridgend, Neath and Port Talbot areas of South Wales. ==Background==
In the United Kingdom skin conditions account for about a 20% of a family doctor's workload. Many of these patients can be dealt with in the practice, but a significant number end up being referred to hospital for a specialist opinion. More than 6,000 new patients are seen in the Princess of Wales and Neath Port Talbot hospitals each year. However, there is a national shortage of dermatologists and a number of posts remain unfilled, particularly in rural areas. This is against a background of increasing levels of skin disease – especially skin cancer – and a higher demand for services. There are also an increasing number of successful interventions which require specialist input, usually in a hospital setting. Over recent years, this has led to long waits for patients to get a second opinion.
