Why Can’t I Maintain a National Summary for the Selected Patient?

The ability to send or maintain a National Summary or to change a patients’ preference or consent is determined many factors. Look through the following list and check that:

• The practice is enabled for National Summary.
• The practice is fully RBAC enabled.
• The patient qualifies for a structured summary. To qualify the patient should:

• Be permanently registered with the practice,
• Have a new style NHS number and
• Be synchronised on the PDS

• You have user rights to view the patients record
