Get fast and proven connections with your NHS systems

With our expertise, you can innovate sooner and often at lower cost. Netcall has partnered with NHS organisations for more than 25 years, ensuring our tech is swift to integrate, robust and interoperable.

Simple and secure integration to Trust systems via HL7, FHIR, APIs or CSV

Patient Hub integrates with Patient Administration Systems (PAS), Trust Integration Engines (TIE), and other healthcare systems. Data can be exchanged using HL7, FHIR, APIs, or CSV.

Flexibility through Netcall’s proprietary data adaptor

The Liberty On Premise Adaptor (OPA) delivers live data feeds between trust systems and our cloud-deployed solutions.

Integrations drive digital letters and print queues

The OPA makes easy work of pulling data from your systems to create digital letters using our integrated letter template mode. It generates the appointment letters and then stitches it together with the other assets.

“It was a partnership that we worked with Netcall. They were on every call with us. They were at the Board with us. They’ve done everything on the NHS App with us. They really helped us deploy at scale so we’re up to about 92% of services now. ”

Rob Child

Leeds Teaching Hospitals

“We are already seeing the positive impact of this work for our patients, and the time staff previously spent on sending out appointment letters is being used to better support patients and make the most of every available appointment.”

Alex Whitfield

Hampshire Hospitals

“Before Patient Hub, my day was a lot more paper based so the only way that we could tell patients about their appointments is by sending letters in the post. It’s amazing to have something that is automatically sending text messages and emails.”

Charles Webb

Outpatient Booking Coordinator, Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust

“Patient Hub is about giving our patients an improved experience and control over their appointments. Reallocating freed appointments to other patients shortens their waiting time, maximises utilisation and reduces DNAs.”
