Community Data

The Community Data app allows you to view patient data gathered from a myriad of data sources and secondary health systems. Vision 3 users can access the Community Data web application to retrieve information, such as tests done in a hospital, to facilitate healthcare via the Medical Interoperability Gateway (MIG). The MIG is an automated brokerage service that can locate a patient record and facilitate an exchange of information between healthcare IT systems. The view you have is dependent on the data available to your CCG.

To view the available community data:

1. From the Vision 3 front screen, select either:
   • Consultation Manager - Select a patient and open a consultation if necessary. Now, select Apps and either select Select App to view all available apps, or select a quick link to the app if one has been set up, see Setting up your Apps menu for details
