GP2GP
GP2GP allows patient records to be electronically transferred to a new practice when a patient moves to a new doctor.
At the moment, records get printed out and posted - and then retyped at the other end. Electronic transfers will be more accurate and secure - and much faster than the current paper-based approach, which can take up to six weeks to complete.
What progress so far?
In November the first live transfer took place as part of a trial of the system. The record was transferred from the Whickham Health Centre practice to the Chainbridge House practice, both in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, via the Spine.
NHS Connecting for Health said the project team is now in the early stages of proving this solution "and are moving at a measured pace".
