Scottish Cervical Call Recall System (SCCRS)

The Scottish Cervical Call Recall System (SCCRS) sends electronic smear results, exclusions and recalls direct to Vision via Mail Manager. These messages can be subsequently filed to the patient record in Consultation Manager.

The SCCRS-GP integration with Vision does not replace the administrative functions of the web-based SCCRS system, such as recording a smear or managing call-recall lists. It enables Vision to contain all relevant SCCRS messages, ensuring a more complete patient record.

Note- There is currently no requirement for Vision to send messages to update the central recall system with details of smears taken. It is likely that the central system is unable to process incoming messages of this type.

You can start to receive SCCRS messages in Mail Manager upon receipt of DLM 280 and once the central eLinks team switches it on. This is providing your Vision system has Mail Manager enabled and has been configured with the eLinks messaging functionality. eLinks is the Scottish National web-based tool which manages the transmission and receipt of messages between national and primary care IT systems. You need to have eLinks setup in order to receive SCCRS messages.

When you are initially enabled to receive SCCRS messages, we recommend that you regularly monitor and compare messages in both SCCRS and Vision. This is to make sure all data in SCCRS is being received correctly.
