The new Access Dashboard – August 2023 provides visibility into Seattle Children’s ambulatory clinics’ wait times.  Page 1 lists wait times by specialty. Page 2 lists conditions or symptoms considered urgent for scheduling purposes.

The Access Dashboard can help community providers make decisions about referring to Seattle Children’s versus referring elsewhere or managing a patient in their medical home.

Algorithms and other clinical care resources 

Seattle Children’s has a robust toolbox of algorithms and other clinical care resources to help primary care providers (PCPs) manage patients in primary care and know when is the right time to refer to a specialist.  These resources were created with the help of PCPs and are compiled along with Seattle Children’s clinical standard work pathways at seattlechildrens.org/algorithms.
