Policy Brief & Purpose

This policy is to outline the hierarchy and process by which user concerns and grievances are to be addressed and moved toward resolution. Please refer to the Grievance Procedure Policy for further information on addressing user grievances.

Scope

This policy applies to all questions, concerns, grievances, problems, and other issues raised by TPN.health users.

Procedures

All concerns raised by TPN.health users should be directed to the appropriate tier starting with clinical support, except when the concern being raised has been judged by its recipient to be of an urgent or complex matter that requires the attention or expertise of a different tier. In most cases, the user is directed to bring their concern to a channel within clinical support, at which point it will be addressed and resolved by a clinical support representative. Failing resolution, the concern will be raised to the next tier for further examination and/or consultation.

The tiers of expertise are as follows, subject to amendment by TPN.health administration.
