This procurement is being carried out by the National Commercial and Procurement Hub (NHS England) on behalf of the Commissioners.
A typical GP Practice in Sunderland, with 7100 patients will house approx. 450,000 pages in Lloyd George (LG) Envelopes containing crucial historical medical records for every patient.
The detailed personal information stored inside means that security and accuracy are vital and coupled with the fact that many paper records are over 60 years old and in a state of decay and becoming unreadable, this is both clinically and legally unsafe.
Practices are required by law to retain patient records, pre digitisation records are kept within the Lloyd George envelope. For the most part, they can be very paper heavy and take up storage space on a practice site or in secondary storage areas, sometimes at significant costs to practices.
39 practices across Sunderland have funding to fully digitise their Lloyd George Records which will not only create efficiencies within General Practice but free up much needed space within the practice which can be utilised for clinical use.
These 39 practices (detailed below with their individual list size) are split across 5 localities and cover a footprint of 272,403 patients.
