Accurx is a free platform where patients and healthcare professionals communicate. Our software connects people across the system to make patients healthier and NHS staff happier. You can use Accurx anywhere to communicate easily with patients and other clinicians in your trust or across the NHS (98% of GP practices currently use our software) – connecting you across services for fast and simple care coordination.

Accurx allows you to easily text your patients, message GPs and much more, all from your desktop or mobile. Accurx is a free web-based service, so you don’t need to install or download any software and patients don’t need to download an app (you send a video call link via SMS).

Click here to get started today. It only takes 2 minutes to sign up with your NHS email address using single sign-on, so you don’t need to remember another password 🎉

Accurx Web allows you to easily text your patients and allows patients to respond to your message with replies coming back to your organisation's inbox. You'd just need to search by the patient's NHS number and Date of birth or by name and demographics. You can also save time by creating custom templates for yourself and your organisation to use.

Suggested Use 💡 Any ad hoc messaging to a patient, eg "Your prescription is ready", "Item owed is ready", or "Please contact us" can be done in a simple text message.

Message GP practice is a feature of Accurx Web that allows you to send messages about a patient directly to their GP practice without having to look up any contact details. Message GP practice will only be available if it has been enabled for the patient's GP practice. If you're unsure if this is enabled for your pharmacy, drop us a message using the blue icon in the bottom right-hand corner.

Suggested Use 💡 Any query for a GP practice e.g. “item out of stock”, or “prescription query” or to send clinical information that should be saved to record e.g. BP/ABPM readings. There are already templates you can use for Out of Stock medications and Blood Pressure Check Services 😊

For guidance on the Message GP function have a look at this article here.

To see how this has been used in South Yorkshire to send blood pressure readings to GPs see our case study here.
