Detailed Coded Record

The Patient Online programme includes offering patients access to their detailed coded records online. However there are exceptions to this. GP practices will have a policy in place and ask you to apply for access to your detailed coded record and the practice will carry out some checks before granting access.

A detailed coded record can contain information, such as;

  • demographics
  • equality and diversity
  • allergies/adverse reactions
  • results (numerical values and normal range)
  • immunisations
  • Medication (dose, quantity and last issued date)
  • Other codes; diagnoses, referrals made and procedures – medical or surgical 

This varies and tends to be dependent on the clinical system used by your practice.
