Hypertension Case Finding Service (HCF): EMIS Referral button launched for GPs using the EMIS system

The Community Pharmacy Provider Board (CPPB) have been working with the GM ICS to fund the EMIS referral button for the HCF to community pharmacy via PharmOutcomes.

GPs who use the EMIS system (over 80% of practices in GM) are now ready to start to sending referrals electronically to community pharmacy (please note that this is optional for General Practice to use). The GM primary care team will be sending communications to all General Practice teams to ensure they are aware of this new functionality and the purpose of the Hypertension Case Finding Service.

For non-EMIS practices, NHSmail and other communication channels will be used to communicate with your pharmacy as there is no electronic solution available at this time.

We hope you can join our upcoming webinar to find out more.
