## Notice

Currently our main GP It systems are TPP SystmOne (77 Practices) Emis Web (15 practices) and one independent system. The Clinical Decision / Templates Support Tool would need to work in conjunction with SystmOne as a mandatory requirement and preferably with Emis Web. The provider will be required to offer a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) that assists healthcare professionals deliver optimised and up to date patient care in a safe and efficient manner. It should give clinicians immediate and easy access to relevant diagnostic, treatment and referral resources. It should embed theses resources seamlessly within the existing patient record in a clear and logical format to support the clinician during their workflows. Information can then be added effortlessly and intuitively into the patient record. This enables improved decision making to occur effectively and efficiently at the point of patient contact, all based upon the latest evidence based guidelines. It should also assist GP Practices, Federations and Clinical Commissioning Groups provide standardised patient care across their organisations, based upon national and local policy and objectives. This helps maximise both income and savings whilst ensuring best practice and patient safety occurs. The reporting functionality should also enable organisations to use powerful business intelligence reports for accurate service evaluation and planning. The service must also provide additional reporting to facilitate consistent centralised reporting. The provider will be required to offer a module for electronic consultations and referrals between different care settings. The CCG wishes to meet with providers of suitable systems to discuss its draft specification and to see if there are systems on the market that can fulfil its requirements.
