Background

Community Pharmacy Clinical Services Solutions can currently consume data from Access Record: Structured for the following data areas:

  1. Medications

  1. Uncategorised data

  1. Investigations

This Roadmap item has the purpose of uplifting the Capabilities and Standards model to clarify this position. It also enables future updates to be made in a clear and consistent manner.

A change to the Patient Information Maintenance - GP Capability has also been included removing reference to Medication and Allergies because Solutions currently provide all data types in compliance with the GP Connect Access Record Structured Standard.

Patient Information Maintenance - GP: E00179 updated

E00179 - GP Connect - Access Record

As a Health or Care Professional

I want to enable access to Patient information for other Healthcare Organisations via GP Connect

So that Patient information can be accessed by other Healthcare Organisations

Acceptance criterion 1: provide access to GP Patient Information as a HTML view

Given there is Patient data to be shared for a Patient

When the Health or Care Professional at another Healthcare Organisation selects information from the Patient’s GP Record

Then the Patient information is displayed as a HTML view

Acceptance criterion 2: provide access to GP Patient Information relating to Medications and Allergies in a Structured format

Given there is Patient data to be shared for a Patient

When the Health or Care Professional at another Healthcare Organisation selects to view data from the Patient’s GP Practice Electronic Patient Record (EPR)

Then the structured Medication and Allergies data for the Patient data is displayed

E00179 - Additional Implementation Details

Solutions MUST comply with the following when implementing this Epic:

  • GP Connect Access Record HTML Standard (Provider requirements)

  • GP Connect Access Record Structured Standard (Provider requirements)

Full Specification

The updated Patient Information Maintenance - GP Capability and GP Connect Access Record Structured Standard will be added at a later date. Proposed changes can be viewed in the Summary of Change above.
