The coroner's concerns
1. delayed discharge summary review
“Mr [name redacted] had an xray and was discharged from Addenbrookes Hospital on 25 February. You have arranged that that the hospital post discharge letters to your surgery. This was not received received until 28th February 2013 by which time Mrs [name redacted] had called requesting stronger pain killers. The discharge summary was only reviewed by a doctor on 6 March. You stated that only if a patient was admitted to hospital would their discharge letter get prompt attention. There was no apparent method”
