How does Hero save to record in EMIS and TPP?

Let's explore how information looks in EMIS or TPP once it has been reviewed and saved to record.

How do patient's submit information?

Patients can be invited to submit information into a practice via a few routes:

  1. Being sent a one-time reply link, which gives patients the option to write back to the practice and upload documents or photos

  2. Being sent and completing a questionnaire link

  3. Submitting a care navigation request

  4. Completing an intake form as part of a booking

Here is an example of a patient completing a BMI questionnaire:

Once submitted, this information is reviewed within the Hero inbox, where there is an option to save to record:

What does this look like within EMIS?

EMIS mandates that any information saved back into the EMIS record is:

  1. Is reviewed by a clinician (or appropriately trained staff member) before being saved

  2. Is saved back into the EMIS 'Consultations' tab as a consultation

We save back detail regarding the submission, SNOMED codes as necessary and selected observations (Height, Weight, Blood Pressure).

Here's an example questionnaire:

What does this look like within TPP's Systm One?

We save back into SystmOne as a consultation. As with EMIS, the data saved includes a summary of the submission, an author and then SNOMED coded text. We don't currently save observations into TPP, although this is on our roadmap.
