Stated action
“The primary care registration management process within the NHS in England is managed through a range of different systems which, when operated correctly, ensure a patient's GP registration transfers from one GP practice to another. The successful registration of a patient with a new GP practice includes the appropriate generation of notifications to the different systems involved in the process.”
