Who is eligible?

The patients included in the Initial Upload process will be those who:

• Are permanently registered with the practice (excluding applied for registration) at the point SCR was enabled.
• Have a new style NHS number.
• Do not have a current National Summary record (when a patient registers, a current GP summary is retrieved if they already have a National Summary.)
• Patients with an FP69 flag will NOT be included in the Initial Upload process.
• Patients must be at least partially synchronised with PDS to be eligible (see SCR PDS Synchronisation).

  Note - patients who have expressed dissent are NOT included in the Initial Upload process.

  Patients who are not permanent at the point of SCR switch on are not included in the initial upload but once "Permanent" will have a summary automatically created or updated when they are next selected. See New Permanently Registered Patients for further details
