Welcome to Our New Patient Online Consultation System
We’re excited to announce some upcoming changes to our online consultation system that will make managing your healthcare needs easier and more integrated. As we continuously strive to improve your experience with us, we’re transitioning to a new system called Blinx PACO GP, starting from 22nd May 2024.
What’s happening?
On 21st May, we’ll be saying goodbye to our current system, Anima, and the following day, Blinx PACO GP will be ready for use. This change means that the forms and questionnaires you’re familiar with will be updated and accessed via our new Digital Front Door.
Why Blinx PACO GP?
Based on valuable feedback from patients like you, we chose Blinx because it enhances security and user-friendliness. You won’t need to remember a username or password. Instead, you’ll use your NHS number and date of birth to log in. Verification will be done via a code sent to your contact details, simplifying your access to our services.
Your health and convenience are our utmost priorities, and we believe these changes will significantly enhance your experience with Hall Green Health. Thank you for your continued trust in us.
Below is a short demo of Blinx. We are currently working with Blinx to produce more videos tailored to scenario you may encounter.
