While open notes have been the “law of the land” in the United States for more than a year, in England, adult patients accessing care through the National Health Service (NHS) will for the first time have access to their primary care record online starting Nov. 1, 2022. In this webinar, we will discuss what this development means for patients and GP staff in England.

In this webinar you’ll learn about a new initiative by OpenNotes and the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health aiming to fix repair the gaps in health information technology for older adults.

And, you will learn from a patient and physician/family care partner as they describe their lived experiences navigating proxy access.
