RESUMO
Background Rising demand for sexual health services requires publicly funded service providers to ensure they are seeing members of priority populations. Sydney Sexual Health Centre in New South Wales, Australia developed an innovative online triage tool called 'Am I OK?' to support this goal. Methods This paper outlines the findings of a review that examined the use of the triage tool using retrospective cross-sectional analysis of 2017 data. Results The tool has achieved its purpose in ensuring that non-priority populations are referred to other services, consequently saving a significant amount (approximately 6months equivalent) of phone triage nurse time. Conclusion More work may need to be done to ensure that the tool is not creating a barrier for priority populations wishing to access the service.
