New Feature - Using PatientChase to identify patients who have not yet had 1st or 2nd Covid vaccinations in line with the government’s priority groups

7th Jan 2021

We have now deployed a suite of Covid searches which can be accessed in the PatientChase Search Builder.

The data of eligible patients who have not yet had a 1st or 2nd vaccine is taken directly from EMIS and our searches are in line with the government’s priority groups of the most vulnerable.

Now they are in PatientChase, it is very easy for you to cross reference lists, identify those who still need a 1st or 2nd vaccination and see who has or hasn’t an appointment booked for either vaccination.

These searches can be saved and worked on from an Excel document or used to contact patients directly through PatientChase by letter, SMS or email.

"(This is a) huge time saver to stop cross-referencing when booking appointments."

Administrator, GP Surgery, South London.

 

We think this will be of huge benefit to practices as they undertake the mammoth task of rolling out vaccines to their populations.

The user guide for loading Covid data from EMIS and running the searches of those who have not yet had a 1st or 2nd vaccine can be found here:

The most useful and user friendly software that I have encountered in over 30 years of working with management systems.

I am so glad that we as a practice have purchased PatientChase – it has completely revamped our recall system, has been invaluable during flu recall season and more importantly shows us where the ‘holes’ are when we get to near the end of the QoF year. Many thanks!

PatientChase is an excellent product of which I think as soon as you purchase it you will ask yourself ‘how ever did I cope without it?!

This product will make my QOF staff member’s job so much simpler and is a quarter of a QOF point for me

This is exactly what we’ve been looking for

By using PatientChase, what would normally have taken half a day has just taken 10 minutes!

We use PatientChase and find it invaluable, it saves a lot of time and helps us organise our work effectively

Sue Careswell, Leckhampton Surgery

As a practice we have relied upon PatientChase to streamline our patient recall system for several years now. I consider this an essential tool
