GP Connect Send Document - FHIR

Overview

 

Use this integration to send a PDF consultation summary to a registered GP practice - using GP Connect Messaging.

For example, use it to send a document containing a patient's consultation notes to their GP practice when a patient is seen:

at another GP practice than their own

by an out of hours service

by a district nurse at home

Each message sent using this integration uses the GP Connect Messaging components, MESH, and ITK3, to deliver the message.

Each message sent is a FHIR Message, defined as a FHIR composition, constructed to meet the ITK3 standard with a specific payload structure.

For more details, see the GP Connect specifications for developers.
