EMIS Web projects and performance update
During our roadshow, we demonstrated how we’re improving the performance and functionality of EMIS Web to support our users to deliver excellent patient care. You’ll find the latest updates at EMIS Now (KB0074607) and here’s a round-up of the highlights:
10/2023
Resource Publisher Improvements to Resource Publisher has resulted in a reduction of ‘blank folder’ issues, and we’ve successfully resumed activations for practices which remain on Template Manager. Practices will be will be sent an email giving two weeks’ notice when they are due to be activated. EPS Bulk Signing EPS Bulk Signing has now been activated for all of our GP England practices, with over one million prescriptions now being successfully bulk signed. We are working on the next phase of functionality to ensure more tasks can be bulk signed and we will be providing updates as this work progresses. EMIS Web 64-Bit We’re pleased to have completed the roll-out of EMIS 64-Bit to all GP England users as part of EMIS Web 9.21 and we’re excited to have observed a 99% reduction in ‘Out of Memory’ errors for users as a result. You can find out more about EMIS Web 64-Bit on EMIS Now (KB5000976).
Health Check Tool We’re working with several ICBs and end-users to pilot a new EMIS Health Check Tool which gives you information about your local machine and network which may be affecting how EMIS Web performs. This information will help local IT desks and the EMIS Service Desk to diagnose and resolve issues faster. We’re currently working on improvements suggested by our pilot users and we will provide updates as the development work and pilot progresses. EMIS Web Cloud Migrations We’re migrating more EMIS Web services to the cloud (AWS) as part of our modernisation strategy and to support the NHS England ‘Public cloud first’ directive. We’ve successfully migrated some practices, and we will be moving more over the coming months, as well as making significant HSCN upgrades. We will notify practices by email ahead of their migration date and we will give more information on the effect of the work as we migrate more services. You can find out more on EMIS Now (KB0064888)
