Do you want your confidential medical records electronically stored on The NHS database?

Dear [enter surgery name],

Re:The National Care Records Service (also known as

the NHS Database)

I would be grateful if you would ensure that none of

my records held by you are uploaded to the national

NHS database system. Would you please also file or

scan a copy of this letter in my records and also

record my dissent by entering the 鈥淩ead codes鈥?

93C3 Refused consent for upload to national shared

electronic record

93C1 Refused consent for upload to local shared

electronic record

9Nd1 No consent for electronic record sharing

into my computer record.

Please note that I do not want you to upload my

GP-held computerised records either to create the

Summary Care Record or the Detailed Care Record. I do

not want you to process my sensitive personal medical

data in this way.

This is an explicit refusal and I am exercising my

right to give you notice of my refusal as entitled

under section 10 of the Data Protection Act.

I am aware of the implications of this request and

will notify you should I change my mind.

I am not objecting to my surgery maintaining and

updating my GP-held, surgery-based computerised

medical records that are essential for my surgery to

provide me with appropriate and effective medical

care.

This request is itself confidential. Please do not
