Bringing ECG expertise to every corner of the UK
Broomwell Healthwatch offers substantial financial benefits for CCGs in two key areas. Firstly, the cost of an ECG through our service is only a fraction of the typical hospital fee, enabling significant savings across primary care. Secondly, our immediate, consultant-led ECG reporting helps GPs make confident clinical decisions without unnecessary referrals to A&E. This not only improves patient management but also helps avoid costly hospital admissions — particularly as many cardiac patients are discharged within 1–2 days, highlighting how often such admissions could have been prevented.
Immediate access to expert ECG interpretation – while the surgery is still online – allows GPs to begin treatment and triage without delay. This rapid response can be critical, enabling early intervention that may prevent long-term cardiac damage and significantly improve outcomes. cardiologists. All ECG interpretations are carried out by UK-practising cardiac clinicians and cardiology registrars, handpicked for their advanced ECG interpretation skills and frontline cardiology experience. Ongoing training, audits, and examinations ensure our team upholds the highest standards of care.
Our service improves the patient experience by providing fast, convenient diagnostics without the need for hospital visits. It reduces anxiety associated with delayed diagnoses, minimises time off work, and allows care to be delivered in a familiar and accessible setting.
