Project objectives

1. Business Case

Adult Social Care organisations must be able to share information with and receive information from the National Health Service to plan, monitor and administer care. This includes Personal Identifiable Information relating to a service user.

• technical - such as relating to messaging

• data - defining the structure and type of information to be recorded and submitted as a data set or a clinical terminology code set for example

• information governance - relating to policies, procedures or guidelines on information processing for example

The NHS' Data Alliance Partnership Board (DAPB) assures the quality of information standards. Their standard for e-mail communication is DCB1596.
