The Jersey Summary Care Record is a service provided to Hospital clinicians via the EMIS platform and went operational on January 25th 2021.
EMIS is the primary platform used across primary care for the storing and management of patient information. It was commissioned in Jersey in 2014. The Jersey Summary Care Record was developed on the EMIS platform as an enhanced service offering to the Hospital, providing a summary of a patient's primary care GP record in real time to authorised hospital clinicians.
The operational costs associated with the Jersey Summary Care Record are as follows:
• No additional training costs as training has been provided internally
• Total running costs on current levels of 20 clinicians = £7Kpa
• Contract period is 5 years, beginning May 1st 2019
• Additional ancillary costs e.g. for additional users = £350pa per user.
