Introduction
National Health Application and Infrastructure Services (NHAIS) is a system which manages the primary care registration service and supports GP payments and cervical cancer screening. The system maintains Patient registration and their demographic details for England, Wales, Isle of Man and Northern Ireland. NHAIS HA (Health Authority) / GP interfaces allow for the two-way exchange of data covering registration changes.

To comply with the NHAIS HA/GP Links Standard there are currently two implementation options:
Using NHAIS GP Links adaptor
Without using NHAIS GP Links adaptor
Using NHAIS GP Links Adaptor
