Proxy Access

A unique new feature has been released for the NHS App and Patient Access. You can now request to act as a proxy for children, relatives and dependants that you care for using Patient Access.

This enables a parent, family member or carer to act on behalf of the patient with their access tailored accordingly. The proxy feature has gone through rigorous analysis to ensure there are no data privacy risks.

Appointment booking, repeat medication requests, and where applicable access to medical records, can easily be accessed by the proxy once a relative or person has been linked.
