Updated statement for practices using TPP SystmOne

Following detailed discussions between the ICO, TPP, NHS Digital and NHS England, TPP has now identified some changes which are intended to address the ICO’s concerns about the fair and lawful processing of patient data on the system. TPP hopes that the changes will also address the concerns about the security measures in place to prevent inappropriate access to patient data. 

These changes will be implemented for practices using the system and updated documentation should also be provided.

The ICO will continue to work with TPP and other stakeholders to address any remaining concerns.

Further information is available on the ICO’s website.
