I've just had some tests done at the local hospital. Arranged by my GP,
and appointments were very fast indeed. So much so that the appointments
happened before the post arrived telling me where to go exactly in the
large hospital. Luckily, did find out there.

If they can send me texts etc reminding me of those appointments, why not
a text or email with the details of it?

Trouble here is the post arrives about midday. Not much use if on the same
day as your appointment, as happen both times here.

I'd say the letter was produced on a computer. Just the transmission
method which was wrong (to me). And email is free - I'd guess even the NHS
pay something for paper and stamp.

The accessible information standard became law in 2016, it is now mid 2018
and still most nhs sites cannot cope with email letters and large print or
audio letters to patients. Rocket science it is not, However lack of
expertise and the general inertia of large organisations plus the medic
knows best ethos has still meant we are not getting service we have had from
commercial organisations since the bloody turn of the century.
