Consent Preference

During the registration process the patients Consent Preference is NOT sent to the spine. Once the patients registration is "Permanent", when they are next selected an ACS synchronisation is done. If the patient dissents and the local and Spine records do not match an ACS mismatch message displays. This must be resolved as soon as possible, by recording the patients preferred consent. An outstanding ACS mismatch prevents updates to the National Summary being sent. See ACS Mismatch

Patients with no existing consent record are assumed to have implied consent this displays as "No Preference Expressed" in Consultation Manager. This is not uploaded to the Spine. Once permanent their SCR contains core data only.

Whilst the patients registration status is "Applied" their current consent status can be viewed in Consultation Manager - Patient Detail - Preferences. When their registration is updated to "Permanent" their consent status is also available to view on the National Summary Tab.
