Introduction

The OneLauncher PCN Hub is part of the PCN Hub product which brings together all templates suitable for use within a PCN Hub instance of EMIS Web into one place.  These are selected templates which are usually accessible by practices with the role specific OneLaunchers.

Overview
The OneLauncher PCN Hubs brings together the key templates, tools and resources needed to support clinicians and staff working within PCN hub environments.

From here you can access consultation templates, coding tools, procedures, care plans and other shared resources.

What is included?

The initial template in this launcher is our “Hub Template”, this is to be treated as the LTC template, like the OneTemplate Prescriber / OneTemplate Non-Prescriber. Due to a limitation of the Hubs, this template does not have the visibility rules seen in the practice templates. This is the only template made for use specifically within the hub.

The remainder of the templates are those found in practice instances of EMIS.
  1. OneTemplate Additional Roles
The OneTemplate Additional Roles template is based on the specification for the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) and it supports the clinician/user in following key clinical, technical and administrative responsibilities in delivering health services. There are different pages on the template for all of the different Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme team members, as well as pages which cover all elements required for care planning.
  1. OneTemplate Acute
The OneTemplate Acute template aids data entry for the commonest consultation types in Primary Care.  It can be especially useful for trainees, allied health professionals or even established GPs who just want a structured and evidence-based way of recording data.
  1. OneTemplate Coding
This template is for use by clinical coders when receiving external communications from other agencies.
  1. OneProcedure
The OneProcedure template has been developed to help clinicians in Primary Care record clinical procedures with ease.
  1. OneTemplate Admin
This template is designed for use by admin team members to record all of the common things that are needed in that role.
  1. Treatment Room Templates
The treatment room list brings together all templates for the treatment room activities into one place.
