Clinical treatment outside hospital; GP : A GP Practice in the area of Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board Report Date 24/03/2022 Case Against A GP Practice in the area of Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board Subject Clinical treatment outside hospital; GP Case Reference Number 202108074 Outcome Early resolution Miss X complained that the Surgery had not responded to her complaint regarding her concerns to do with her complex autoimmune illness.

The Ombudsman considered this to be an appropriate resolution to the complaint instead of conducting an investigation.
