The information is not held centrally. There are several different models of co-located services (Urgent Care Centres, Walk-in Centres, Minor Injuries Units, other clinics) which exist across the National Health Service in England, and NHS England and NHS Improvement are working with all systems to ensure there is streaming to primary care (and other specialities) from emergency departments as standard. The specific models implemented will vary depending on local circumstances.
