GP2GP Reminders

If a member of staff processing the transfer wants to draw attention to the GP when next seeing the patient, they could add yellow reminders in Consultation Manager. One could say "Incoming GP2GP Record" so other staff and GPs know this record has been transferred - one difference might be the use of history priorities from the old practice. The other could say "Unsummarised Record" which can be deleted once the record has been summarised.

Remember - You can open the patient record from Mail Manager, by selecting the Filed Record Transfer message (Incoming Mail), then selecting ConMgr on the Mail Manager toolbar.

To add a reminder, use one of these methods:

Note - A consultation does not need to be open to add a reminder.
  • Select Add - Reminders, enter the reminder text and select OK.
  • For example, "GP2GP Record received 25.05.2007".
  • To add a second reminder manually to a patient, right click on an existing yellow reminder and select Add, enter the reminder text and select OK.
  • You might want a second reminder that says "GP2GP Record - Not yetSummarised.", this second reminder can be deleted once the notes have been summarised, simply right click on the reminder line and select Delete.
  • Select View - Reminders, which displays a blank reminder, headed with the patient's details, right click on this and select Add.
