To create a report that identifies patients who have refused record sharing within your GP Practice or PCN Hub, you'll follow a series of steps using EMIS Web's reporting functionality. This allows you to efficiently manage patient preferences and ensure compliance with privacy requirements.
Creating the Report in EMIS Web
1. **Access EMIS Web**: Log into your EMIS Web account with appropriate permissions.
2. **Navigate to Reports**: Go to the 'Reporting' section in EMIS Web.
3. **Select Population Reporting**: Choose 'Population Reporting' from the options available. This feature is designed to help you generate lists based on specific criteria.
4. **Set Up Criteria**: You will need to specify criteria for your report. Look for the clinical code "Refused consent for upload to local shared electronic record," which should be recorded in the patient's record when they have opted not to share their detailed record. Set this as your key criteria.
5. **Generate the Report**: Run the report based on the criteria. This will provide you with a list of patients who have explicitly refused record sharing.
Using this report, your practice can uphold patient confidentiality by identifying those who have opted out of record sharing. This not only helps in adhering to patient preferences but also optimizes workflow by ensuring that staff are aware of record-sharing consents.
