Abstract

The 2 Week Wait (2WW) referral pathway for skin cancer is essential for the rapid diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer. However, the glaring lack of consensus on how to document patient referrals, assessments and outcomes across clinics raises a crucial question: should there be a national standard for documenting 2WW skin cancer clinics?
