Use NICE guidance for 2WW criteria.  Check with each Trust's referral forms for specific referral criteria as these may vary. 

NB: For suspected BCCs:

  • If no scale refer urgently to skin health triage (not 2WW form)
  • If overlying scale consider the possiblity of a squamoproliferative process and refer under 2WW rule

NB: If referring under 2WW please give patient 2WW Urgent Referral leaflet and What Happens Next? leaflet

The ENHT referral form can be accessed via the blue button on the left; this form is also available on Ardens.
