A suite of Population Reporting searches for EMIS, created by the CDRC can be used identify patients in your practice with specific Infections. In addition, Population Reporting Searches are available to help support the response to the coronavirus pandemic.
Accessing the Population Reporting Searches:
Until recently, CDRC’s EMIS Population Reports have been made available to access directly from the CDRC website. However, this has meant that there is no way of ensuring that they are being used appropriately and updated as necessary, representing a risk.
You can still access these reports directly from the CDRC team by emailing contact-cdrc@healthinnovationnenc.org.uk ; a member of the CDRC team will be able to provide access to the required reports and any ongoing support.
We endeavour this to be a short-term solution as CDRC are working on a comprehensive support suite, which in the long-term will benefit GP practices using these resources, by providing a more in depth & ongoing support system.

The BBV Reports will identify patients with a code of Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, or HIV and patients
The Covid19 reports will identify your patients who are on the extreme social distancing register and who to consider for shielding:
