GP2GP Attachments

Attachments are transferred if the attachment is filed within the patient record, not held outside. They can be viewed from Attachments under Miscellaneous on the left-hand navigation pane. If you double click on an Attachment line (Filtered or Journal tab) and then select View, the image displays.

Letters sent by the previous practice may appear as either Attachments or Correspondence. In Vision to Vision transfers, letters with .doc are filed in either Correspondence or Attachments depending on where they were filed in the previous practice.

Note - Vision Editor letters are not transferred in GP2GP.

Double click on the Correspondence entry and select the Letter to view the original letter.

DocMan attachments are included in the GP2GP Transfer message.

Note - Docman needs to be installed on the GPC workstation where the GP2GP extract is created for any Docman attachment to be successfully transferred.

Patient records may contain attached test results such as Spirometry, ECGs etc which appear as Multimedia attachments. These can also be filtered using Miscellaneous.
