Creating Local Summaries

You can create a local practice summary for patients using the SCR functionality. This can also be used for patients who have opted not to have an official SCR on the NHS Spine. This summary is stored locally in Vision 3 and is not accessible to 3rd parties. However, the summary is uploaded onto the NHS Spine if the patient ever changes their preference to "I want a Summary Care Record". Local summaries are maintained in the same way as an SCR for upload but are not sent.
