Register with a GP Surgery questionnaire

This FHIR questionnaire is designed to standardise the questions asked when registering for a GP surgery in England.

Codeable observations

This is a list of codeable observations in the Register with a GP surgery service.

When ingesting a patient, codeable observations retrieved from the GP Registration API are automatically added to the patient record. This includes automatically ingesting the ‘Emergency Contact’ codeable observation into existing local data fields to avoid duplication of data.
