Recording of COVID Vaccinations

Date sent: Wednesday 6 January 2021

Practice Managers

Dear Colleagues

Since my email dated 31 December 2020 I have received a number of queries and it has caused more confusion as I was unaware of some advice from Digital Team that had been sent out, I apologise for this. I have since received some updated information from the GPC regarding the recording of the COVID vaccination in EMIS.

There is currently a problem with the Pinnacle system where it integrates quickly with System One but unfortunately not with EMIS. There is as you are aware a solution being worked on and we have been assured the fix is imminent.

So, pending the integration solution the answer is that you enter the episode on Pinnacle and it will ultimately integrate back to EMIS. You do not need to run parallel systems, and I would argue that you should not as there are bound to be discrepancies between the two due to human error.

Kind regards

Amanda Mason
