How many health boards currently utilise the C the Signs clinical decision support platform to promote early cancer diagnosis in primary care settings?
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care | Answered on 24/11/2025
I expect the NHS in Wales to apply the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence referral criteria for suspected cancer. These are reflected in the national optimal pathways for cancer. In support of this, the NHS in Wales has rolled out an education platform for GPs called GatewayC. Health boards may choose to augment this with additional resources such as ‘C the Signs’, but the Welsh Government does not monitor its adoption.
