Why connect MyRenalCare with PKB?
...
The partnership between MyRenalCare and PKB provides both patients and their clinicians automatic access to the patient’s renal blood results in MyRenalCare. Specifically, the patient’s LOINC mapped laboratory results e.g. typically (typically those sent from the UK Renal Registry in the into a patient’s PKB record) will be pulled into, and made accessible, on the patient’s MyRenalCare record.
For patients this allows them to access their renal blood results automatically on MyRenalCare without having to wait to see their clinician giving them greater control.
For clinicians this reduces the need to log-into several online systems making them more efficient.
For NHS Trusts it reduces the number of system connections required reducing costs and simplifies implementation of MyRenalCare.
