Record access is high on the policy agenda By March 2015: • Everyone who wants will have access to their GP records online • Everyone to be able to book GP appointments and order repeat prescriptions online • Everyone will be able to have secure electronic communication with their GP practice • E consultations more widely available • All health and care settings to work towards records integration.
Enabling reviews complete • RCGP Patient Online Roadmap published March 2013 • Caldicott Review on the balance between sharing information and protecting individuals’ confidentiality – due for publication April 2013.
Take up increasing… patchily Examples include: • Renal Patient View • E-Red Book • Patients Know Best pilots • Brains Trust pilot • Health Foundation ‘My Record’ Project www.pifonline.org.uk
With uptake comes the potential for confusion and risk • Records being hacked and login information being ‘phished’ for • Desire to share, but share safely • Coercion from family members and others • Requests from external agencies for records access • Potential for inadvertent sharing

Scope and audience • Electronic records only (not paper) • Primary, secondary and social care • England • Adults, including nominating others to access, but excluding vulnerable adults/children without capacity • For dissemination in both paper and web form.
X Scope and audience Not about: • ‘Selling’ benefits of record access, although should be encouraging, reassuring, positive • ‘Sealed envelopes’ – covered by RCGP work • Complaints, or altering records • Secondary uses of data (e.g. research) • Making technology safe • Professional standards – covered in Care Record Guarantee
Myths and Concerns uncovered in scoping focus groups Everyone will have to sign up to get full access to NHS services in future. Signing up for online access means the creation of an electronic health record. Signing up for online access makes your electronic health record inherently less secure. If I had access, my mum would immediately want to be able to read my record.
