To inform the development of a new data service, we are conducting some research on how patient data is used. We’d like to speak to those who work in, or have responsibility for, patient data in the health and care sector in England at a regional or local level.
The service has the potential to securely identify groups (cohorts) of people with shared characteristics from national health data, to help ensure the right people can be targeted and offered the services and/or treatment they need.
The research is confidential and being conducted by an independent research company. To register your interest to take part please complete this short form.
HL7 UK in association with INTEROpen and NHS England invites you to attend the FHIR UK Core Hackathon.
The event will help health tech suppliers to understand how to implement FHIR UK Core into their products, plan roadmaps that support the development of more interoperable clinical systems across the UK and provide an opportunity to hack some key clinical use cases using The FHIR UK Core.
This is a free event and it will run alongside Digital Rewired on 14 and 15 March 2023 at the London Business Design Centre.
We are looking for suppliers of clinical systems to be involved with the development of FHIR and UK CORE. Your participation will help to ensure that a standard way of handling interactions between different systems is used, improving interoperability locally and nationally as a result.
Please register your interest by emailing interoperabilityteam@nhs.net.
The original plan was to retire Care Identity Service authentication (aka ‘CIS1’) by September 2023, and for systems to have migrated to Care Identity Authentication (CIA, aka ‘CIS2 Authentication’).
Whilst progress has been made; it is clear that not all suppliers will complete the migration within this timeframe.
Therefore, we intend to change approach and:
Currently both CIS1 and CIA are supported to a Platinum Plus SLA – supported hours are 24x7x365 with 99.99% availability target (max of 4 mins downtime per month)
On 30 September 2024:

Changes are being made to the NHS Dictionary of Medicines and Devices (dm+d) and SNOMED CT UK Drug Extension to reduce the potential for clinical errors across NHS clinical IT systems.
The changes will bring the content and availability of these terminologies into closer alignment whilst improving safety and efficiency, allowing staff to focus even more on care.
Find out more about these changes, including proposed delivery timescales and a video for NHS Trusts.
Read the rollout plan for the VMP ID changes.

Changes are being made to the NHS Dictionary of Medicines and Devices (dm+d) and SNOMED CT UK Drug Extension to reduce the potential for clinical errors across NHS clinical IT systems. The changes to the underlying terminology (dm+d) will impact IT systems differently. Pharmacy teams should liaise with their IT system suppliers to determine how the changes will impact their systems.
Information for specific changes is available on the NHS Digital website, including proposed delivery timescales and a video for NHS Trusts.
For any queries, please contact nhsdigital.ukmeds@nhs.net.
Our Cloud Centre of Excellence team will be launching a new NHS Cloud Community on the FutureNHS platform in March, called the Cloud Community of Practice.
It’s aimed at NHS organisations who are interested in all aspects of cloud migration and will be an open forum for people to pose questions and present their challenges around cloud migration to peers.
To pre-register your interest in the Cloud Community please contact us at cloudcoe@nhs.net.
Recent improvements to the Register with a GP surgery online service include:
We are planning to add more features and integrate the service with the NHS App later this year. See our roadmap for more details.
The Register with a GP surgery service is now live with almost 600 practices and has shown to reduce the time it takes administrative staff to register new patients by up to 15 minutes per registration.
GP practices can begin using the service by self-enrolling or by contacting the dedicated support team. Further information can also be found on the resource hub.
The Electronic Prescription Service has transformed primary care prescribing in England. In her NHS Digital feature, Christine Hague looks back at 18 years of the service and asks what’s next.
In his Design Matters blog, David Evans, content designer for the Register with a GP surgery service, says it’s difficult to get accurate answers about people’s smoking and alcohol consumption – and explains what the team is doing to improve the way people assess their intake.
Dan Wintercross explains the benefits of getting involved with the early adopter programme, which is giving GP practices the opportunity to shape the future of digital, data and technology in primary care. Read his Digital Transformation blog.
Listen to the second podcast in the series from the NHS England digital workforce team. A panel of clinical and digital leaders discuss their understanding of the digital workforce across heath and care, and look at why clinicians are fundamental to the success of digital transformation.
