The RCR welcomes the Faster Diagnostics Framework. For many years, the College has been advocating a joined-up approach across the system and this framework will play a key role in ensuring that patients receive timely diagnosis and subsequent treatment.
We also support the inclusion of Rapid Diagnostics and Community Diagnostic Centres in the framework. The RCR looks forward to playing a key role in embedding this framework and working to ensure we have the fully funded workforce to carry out its objectives.
