GP Connect - Update Record (ITK3)

Part of the GP Connect product family

Mapping PRSB headings to FHIR

The Community Pharmacy Standard General Implementation Guidance v3.01 (section 4.2 page 22) highlights the data items required for each use case.

PRSB CP Implementation Guidance (external link, opens in a new tab)

This ITK3 specification currently focuses on the CPCS Minor Illnesses, Contraception, and Blood Pressure Check services.

How are PRSB headings represented within FHIR?

In previous ITK3 specifications, the NHS has asked providers to send this as HTML within the Composition.section.text element, along with a SNOMED code within Composition.section.code.

GP Connect does not follow this pattern, and prefers that uncategorised data be sent within the following FHIR profiles:

A value from the following code system should be used within meta.tag to articulate which headings the data item being represented aligns to. A link to the code system can be found below.

Code system: RecordStandardHeadings

In the event of multiple values for the same heading being sent, additional profiles will be sent.

Note: Only the main headings within PRSB standards are represented within this code-system. Sub-headings are not to be used, and can instead be inferred by the data being expressed in the profile.

More information about this can be found within the Tagging payloads with meta.tag section of this specification.

Heading: Safeguarding

A safeguarding concern is a worry, anxiety or suspicion that a child or adult may be at risk of abuse or neglect. Or that the individual may already have been harmed by a caregiver, institution or someone else they have contact with.

This is a required data item in the Community Pharmacy Standard, which means that Pharmacy Suppliers are obliged to provide this information if it is present within their clinical system.

There are two items that could be populated if this information is present in the payload.


Details of the safeguarding concerns, represented as a SNOMED code from the Safeguarding issues simple reference set (foundation metadata concept) within Flag.code.

Heading: History

The record of the person’s significant medical, surgical and mental health history. Including relevant previous diagnoses, problems and issues, procedures, investigations, specific anaesthesia issues, etc. (will include dental and obstetric history).

This is a required data item in the Community Pharmacy Standard, which means that Pharmacy Suppliers are obliged to provide this information if it is present within their clinical system.


Recorded as a free-text string within the ClinicalImpression.summary element.

Note: The PRSB suggest a member from the 1127581000000103 | Health issues simple reference set (foundation metadata concept) reference set which has over 125,000 members.

It is very unlikely that the entire reference set will be searched to store this information coded, and as such, free text is preferred to record the history in this version of the specification.

Heading: Signpost details

These are the details of any services that the person has been signposted too. Signposting is in the form of providing the person with the name of an organisation and their contact details - for example, telephone number, website (it is not a referral).


Note: The concept of signposting within the PRSB is relatively new and not yet fully understood well enough to be mapped to FHIR in a structured fashion.

As such, free text is preferred to record the signpost details in this version of the specification.

Heading: Planned and requested actions

The details of planned investigations, procedures and treatment, and whether this plan has been agreed with the person or their legitimate representative.


Recorded as a free-text string within the ClinicalImpression.summary element.

Important: The concept of tasking between healthcare systems within GP Connect has not yet been defined, thus, this heading cannot be used for creating tasks.

The sending practitioner MUST contact the receiving practitioner (GP) directly to request tasks.
