We're able to link up behind the scenes with the NHS registrations inbox and automate registrations from the Register with a GP Surgery service. There's no difference in what you pay when we automate NHS registrations.
How do we begin automating the NHS registrations?
Go to the Settings page of the Hub
Choose your practice
Go to Form Settings
Toggle on receiving registrations from Find a GP and the NHS App
The NHS team will send you an email when this has been set up. If you'd like to disable this, you'll need to contact us. If you need to change any settings for NHS registrations, you can do this from the NHS Profile Manager.
❗️Please keep manually registering patients from the PDF forms until you have received this email!
Where will we find these registrations?
You'll see these registrations in the Hub, in exactly the same way as the rest of your automated registrations! We'll identify which registrations are from the NHS service…
What about the emails with the registrations from NHS Digital?
You'll continue to receive registration notification emails with the PDF forms from the NHS. But you won't need these anymore!
You can set up rules in Outlook to automatically file these away to a folder or archive.
Data Capture Differences
You might notice a difference in what is captured and coded from the NHS online registration form, compared with patients who complete the Healthtech-1 Registration Form.
