National Patient Portal Development in Scotland
Scotland's National Health and Social Care Patient Portal, led by Programme Manager Tricia Duncan, aims to create a centralized platform for patients to access information and digital services. The project, commissioned by the Scottish Government's eHealth Directorate, focuses on providing a single point of access for all citizens, ensuring consistent user experience and baseline services. The initiative aims to streamline authentication processes and introduce new services to enhance patient care and self-management capabilities.

National Patient Portal Develop a patient portal that will allow a single point of access for patients and public Build a platform to enable access to information and digital services Approach to development and implementation
National Patient Portal Commissioned by Scottish Government eHealth Directorate (follow up from Phase 1 Discovery piece) Initial funding secured for PoC and OBC Commission to be delivered by consortium of West of Scotland eHealth Leads including NHS24 Programme managed by Programmes & Strategy eHealth directorate of NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde Governed by National Programme Board - first meeting in April 2017
National Patient Portal - Principles We will do this once for Scotland. People will have the same user experience regardless of where they live. The same baseline services will be offered to everyone and expanded incrementally over time. myaccount will be used for user authentication.
Why do we need a National Patient Portal? Multiple authentication / sign in routes
What are the potential benefits? Targeted Improvements Current Approach Future Portal Approach Sign posting Multiple sites and services and log ins Ease /single point of access Transactions Manual, paper based Digital, online Supporting new Models of care New models emerging - linked to clinically led transformation plans but needs technology to enable at scale More potential for: Innovation Collaboration/shared learning Patient self-management
To provide a single point of access and new services
What have we been asked to do? Further develop the business case for an incremental approach to platform delivery that will in time deliver a full range of services Prototype, prove and inform the design of an appropriate platform for the range of required functionality Build a minimal viable platform and associated products that will demonstrate the concept and provide the key features to enable the delivery of a range of agreed services Develop a framework for integration of the platform into a range of dependent applications and data sources
What we are aiming to deliver? Landing Page providing single point of access for patients (co- designed with patients) Authentication arrangements using myaccount (utilising CHI) Verification process to ensure patients have the appropriate levels of access Platform providing common building blocks (technical services) for implementation of patient services. The means to connect into multiple back end systems to locate, share and receive data (bi-directional) The means to allow clinicians to view relevant patient generated information in a seamless way PoC by Q3 2017
Approach Proof of Concept Outline Business Case Basic Patient Portal Product Definition Myaccount integration Support Model Links to existing sites / systems Shortlist Implementation Options PoC of a minimum of two representative use cases Cost Benefit Analysis Demonstrate integration to multiple back end systems (WOS boards) Describe portal operational governance mechanism WOS centric National focus
