Health Minister says there's still no date to give patients one unified medical record

Health Minister Claire Christian says there's still no date to give patients one unified medical record, despite safety risks in the way records are currently kept.

She faced a question for written response from Rushen MHK Juan Watterson about why addresses given to Manx Care aren't updated by the vaccination service.

In her response, she said there still wasn't a single health record in operation - despite recommendations from the Care Quality Commission, the Covid Review, Coroner of Inquests, Royal College and an independent Health and social Care Review.

But she added a business case submitted by Manx Care for money to integrate systems was still awaiting approval.
