Request

Please could you tell me how an external company or organisation can apply to connect with your clinical computer systems – both test systems and live (production) systems – like your electronic patient records or image systems (e.g. EMR, EHR, PACS)?

We do not have a EMR or PACS systems,  answers relate to Trust EHR systems.

  1. What is the approval process for this?  Trust CIO should be approached in first instance
  2. Which teams or people inside the trust decide if it can go ahead? Dependent on the use case for the external integration proposal.
  3. What steps are involved in getting permission?  CIO, Trust approval and governance processes.
  4. Where does someone start this process (e.g. email address or webform)? Trust CIO Andrew.chronias@nhs.net
