2. SCI Gateway - Demonstration SCI Gateway provides the mechanism to enable the electronic communication of clinical messages, initially between GP and hospital but potentially ‘any to any’. It can be used via a PC with only a web browser and NHSnet connection, or it can integrated into GP and hospital systems. This demonstration is based GP to Hospital referral and integration already achieved with both GPASS and SCI Outpatients.

8. Protocol-specific information is then requested Parked referrals are marked In Progress. Clicking the patient name re-opens it Referral details are then completed A set of tabs gives access to the various referral sections Demographics and administration fields are automatically populated for GPASS users Referrals may be parked for later completion Once complete, the referral can be sent

9. The referral is sent to the Gateway The referral is checked automatically to ensure that all fields required by the protocol have been completed Hospitals that have implemented SCI Outpatients can offer electronic booking If booking is selected, an appointment slot may be chosen

10. Letters can be printed out The GP is prompted to print out the referral letter …and a confirmation letter for the patient’s appointment (if booked)

11.
