Process for approving new use-cases
The enablement team can help get you started by guiding you in the following:
1. Confirming the Send Document capability fulfils the use case requirements
Read through this specification to ensure that it fulfils the requirements for your use case, and that the sending or receiving system(s) can meet the data requirements - for example, having the information required to populate the FHIR resources as described in this specification.
2. Submit your use case for the Send Document capability
Contact gpconnect@nhs.net about your use case for the Send Document capability.
3. Getting your use case approved
Use cases are approved on the basis that development is started for the capability approved within six months. If this date is missed, then a review of the case will be required.
4. Getting conformance
Once approved, the service practitioner will:
- introduce the assurance process and artefacts to gain technical conformance
- set up a Microsoft Teams page which will be used to raise queries
5. Assurance
The developed solution will require assurance before it can be enabled in production. Read more on the GP Connect Consumer Support Hub wiki.
