From April 2022, patients with online accounts such as through the NHS App will be able to read entries in their health record. This applies to patients whose practices use the TPP and EMIS systems. Arrangements with practices which use Vision as the clinical system are under discussion. This is an NHS England programme supported by NHSX and NHS Digital.
To support practices the LMC, in conjunction with the CCGs, is hosting a number of informational/Q&A sessions. The booking process is being supported by EQUIP and links to register are below:
