Taking NHS Records to the US

Everything went well at my interview and now I'm putting some final logistics into place.

 

My main concern is what to do with my NHS records. Obviously it's good practice to have them for future insurance purposes etc.

 

I have access to records on the NHS app and via my GP's online system. Would a copy from these suffice in the future? Or should I put a subject access request in to my GP?

Belt and suspenders.  Always have a copy of everything you're "leaving" in another country.  It makes it easier than having to try and get it back from another country.

 

I'm in the US, so I can't speak to NHS.  If I switch doctors here and the new doctor's system is not compatible with the old doctor's system, someone has to push the data from the old to the new.  Some of the systems are so far out of touch with each other that it becomes a paper-based transfer.  (It does make you decide how badly you want to leave one doctor for another when that's a part of the price you pay.)

 

Regards,

Thank you, I intend to have some kind of copy.

 

I realised after posting this it makes more sense to print my own records from the online system, as that's what they'll do anyway. Saves me money too!
