Nervecentre has been awarded certification for using the MESH API service by NHS Digital.
The Message Exchange for Social Care and Health (MESH) is a messaging service provided by NHS Digital. It’s a secure service for transferring large files between health and social care organisations; Nervecentre uses MESH to send letters to patients’ GPs.
The MESH API allows Nervecentre software to communicate directly with MESH, introducing several benefits, including:
- enabling MESH processing to run on multiple servers with automatic failover
- providing greater control over sending and receiving messages
- recording GPs’ replies to letters in Nervecentre
The MESH API is available from version 7.1 of Nervecentre onwards.
