FAST (Facilitated Access to Specialized Treatment) is a central access and intake program for surgical referrals.
Referrals for General Surgery in the Central Zone are accepted through this Facilitated Access to Specialized Treatment (FAST) central access and intake program. Referring providers can choose a next-available surgeon with the shortest waitlist; a specific surgeon, clinic, or site; or an out-of-zone provider. FAST receives the surgical referrals, reviews them for completeness and duplication, and then sends them to appropriate surgeons for triage and booking. For more information, go to ahs.ca/FAST.
