Alerts - HL7 V3 API

Overview

Use this API to send an alert for the attention of a Privacy Officer - also known as Summary Care Record Governance Person (SGP) in community pharmacies - so they can audit proactively whether access to a patient’s data was appropriate. 

This provides a general alerting mechanism covering, for example, when a user looks up a patient on the Summary Care Record application (SCRa).

A healthcare worker must be present and authenticated with an NHS smartcard or a modern alternative to use this API.
