Data Sharing with NHS Digital - in relation to coronavirus (Covid-19) planning

​

 

Your personal data and the Covid-19 Vaccination

​

As a Practice we are participating in the COVID-19 vaccination program. 

We have contracted Procare Health Ltd GP Federation to provide the local vaccination service to our patients. 

​

As a result of this there may be a requirement for your information to be shared with them if you are eligible for the vaccine. This information will be shared to support your direct care. Those working at the local vaccination service will only normally have access to the information which they need to fulfil their roles.

​

Further information about our processing of your Personal Data can be found in our Privacy Notice.

​

When it is the right time for you to receive your vaccination, you will receive an invitation to come forward. This invitation may be via the phone, text or through a letter. The invitation may not be sent from your GP, it may be from Procare Health Ltd GP Federation who are providing local vaccination service or the NHS directly.

​

We know lots of people will be keen to get protected from the virus but we are asking people not to contact the practice to get an appointment as you will not be able to get an appointment until you are contacted directly.

PCN Privacy Notice

• Binscombe Medical Practice

• The Mill Medical Practice

By operating as a network, we are able to provide a more comprehensive set of services, provided by local clinicians and health and care providers. These services currently include:

 

• Blood Pressure at Home (BP@Home). The BP@Home Service utilises the InHealthcare platform to support the remote monitoring of patient blood pressure readings.  For more information see the Inhealthcare Privacy notice, speak to the BP@Home team or ask your GP/Practice manager.

 

Where necessary and relevant to support your direct care, we will share your confidential patient information with members of our network to support safe, efficient and effective care and treatment.

​

We will use data which you cannot be identified from when we are undertaking the planning and commissioning of local health and care services.  This ‘de-identified data’ is effectively anonymised in accordance with the Information Commissioner’s Office Code of Practice, a summary of which is available at link.    

   

If you are not happy for your health data to be shared with the organisations detailed above if you access PCN services then you can object to this.  To do so you should contact your registered Practice so they can discuss the potential impact this could have on your care and treatment. 

​

If you do not wish for your de-identified data to be used for planning and commissioning of PCN services you are able to opt-out of this via the National Opt-Out – please see link below for further details:  https://www.nhs.uk/your-nhs-data-matters/
