When the Corona opt-in is reversed, the records of patients who are not have arranged their consent through a regular opt-in no longer available. Here are some tips and tricks for ways you can regular opt-ins.

LSP Tips & Tricks

You can then For example, agreeing to exchange the forms once a week. This It may take some time initially, but it will also pay off for you. It is so that that patients with repeat prescriptions regularly come to the pharmacy, but they may not visit you regularly in your GP practice. It is therefore more difficult to reach these patients. With a combined consent form, you can still reach these patients.
  • On the moment it is because of the Corona opt-in only on an individual level and via a query to see if your patient is already in the regular way consent to the LSP. It is therefore useful to keep this in mind (vulnerable) patients on an individual level.
