To refer a patient for a diagnostic cardiac catheterization, please fill out CorHealth Ontario’s referral form and send it to the Regional Cardiac Care Coordinator at Kingston Health Sciences Centre (KHSC) when completed. Patient bookings will take place once the referral form is received. If the forms are incomplete, they will be returned for completion. The form, when complete, will provide recommended wait times that are used to book the patient ensuring timely access to care.
Additional referral form documentation and guidelines
Please review the following documents when completing a referral form:
For Inpatients:
For Outpatients:
- Fax cover sheet for outpatients

An emergent patient transfer should not be delayed. The documents can be faxed to 613-548-2407 or emailed to cardiaccathlabreferr@kgh.kari.net when the patient is en route. This will ensure we have the appropriate data to on-list and off-list the patient in the CCN database.
