Introduction to the GP Connect Messaging Send Document capability
The Send Document capability provides a simple and standardised means of sending a document, such as a PDF, an image, or HTML file to a GP practice system. Each message sent using the Send Document capability makes use of the GP Connect Messaging components MESH and ITK3, integrating with Spine to deliver the message.
All messages sent using this capability will be FHIR Messages constructed to meet the ITK3 standard and have a specific payload structure.
Note: Disambiguation:
The Send Document capability does not include FHIR messages where the payload is defined as a FHIR composition, meeting the requirements of the FHIR Document framework. This capability focuses primarily on facilitating the flow of binary documents across the NHS.
