<There is no need for most of the information to be run in in real time,
since action will be taken as the unstructured paper arrives. The follow
ups which depend on sophisticated analysis, done when we have lost the
mental record from the top of our memory, may better be done using a bulk
update from the original electronic formatted data.>
This might be acceptable in a very small practice where the GP will have seen
all the hospital post but I would maintain you do need up to date access to
relevant data - following a hospital attendance it is very common for patients
to attend and need clarification on what is going on.
I would like to see the info transferred within 24 hrs
