We are aware that, in many regions of England, CCGs and PCNs will be using existing extended hours or clinical services for Covid-19 vaccination management. And it appears to be working… almost.

We know that our customers benefit from utilising familiar systems and well-known processes, and these are now proving useful when repurposed, as the turn-around times are short and the need to ‘re-invent the wheel’ seems to be lessening. So why not continue to utilise the appointment booking system with which practices are already familiar, and simply add an SMS platform.

myGP offers a hosted solution that can be configured and accessed from anywhere, has a short turn-around time (typically connected within 24 hours), provides automatic, configurable reminders and bulk messaging, and allows auto-cancels (and re-allocations) via SMS.

It’s a simple, straightforward addition to existing system that would keep things simple for practices who are already struggling to keep their heads above the administrative waters. And it is just the first of many ways in which myGP can, and will be, helping GP practices navigate the next stage in the fight against COVID-19.
