Introducing EMIS-X Healthcare teams are facing increasing demand and growing pressures that can only be met by NHS organisations working together. We believe that technology has an essential role to play, joining up care and helping to make healthcare delivery faster, better, and more accessible to all.

EMIS-X uses the latest technology to build on this, supporting healthcare transformation through data driven insights, clinical intelligence and integrated tools that all underpin joined-up, informed and efficient care.

The evolution We’re adopting an evolutionary approach for EMIS-X, introducing new functionality incrementally so that you benefit quicker, without the need to retrain on a whole new system from day one. By initially using EMIS-X alongside EMIS Web you’re able to familiarise yourself with the EMIS-X user interface and benefit from new functionality whilst maintaining the rich clinical features of EMIS Web. This ensures a smooth transition and provides a foundation platform for us to deliver enhancements quicker and easier. The next major phase will be a Technology Innovation Framework (TIF) compliant system available in a browser. This will include core functionality including prescribing, appointments management, and consultations. As an internet first solution this will support remote

Local Services Built using EMIS-X technology, Local Services connects patients to local care providers through a process of patient triage and referral. The solution uses information held in the EMIS Web patient record to populate referral templates that can be shared with other healthcare providers. A universal referral solution Local Services saves time for patients and clinicians alike and supports shared working across your neighbourhood. Integrated with EMIS Web, Local Services automatically codes referrals back into the patient record using SNOMED CT and provides practices with enhanced reporting of all triage assessments and referrals, to better understand the needs of their patient population.
EMIS-X Analytics provides secure and seamless access to data and the powerful tools needed to generate meaningful insight. Real-world evidence from patient records makes it easier for services to be tailored to patient’s needs, and for research programmes to develop effective treatments. EMIS-X Analytics is a cloud-based analytics suite of tools, capable of surfacing information quickly and at scale, to generate actionable insights into healthcare trends at a local or national level to make positive changes to how healthcare is delivered.

Case study
Tools like Pathway show that there is a new way to work with primary care. We’re no longer waiting for GPs to refer into us - we’re actively going out, finding those patients in primary care, and bringing them to us.” David Byrne, ODN Manager, Cheshire & Merseyside ODN
The NHS England Hepatitis C (HCV) elimination programme is working to eliminate Hepatitis C as a major public health issue in England, ahead of the World Health Organisation (WHO) goal of 2030. To achieve this, the Cheshire and Merseyside Operational Delivery Network (ODN), based at The Royal Liverpool University Hospital, has been exploring innovative approaches to finding and treating those with the virus.
Powered by EMIS-X Analytics, Pathway uses clinical intelligence within our software to identify at risk patients and supports healthcare teams to refer them onto the appropriate care pathway. In many instances these pathways are managed by specialist or community care services, thereby helping to relieve pressure from primary care. This is a great tool for early intervention which can allow patients to benefit from potentially lifesaving intervention and help reduce future demands on the NHS.
