Summary

The Welsh Results Reporting Service (WRRS) allows health care professionals across Wales to access laboratory results for pathology requests and any other associated results across all health boards in Wales, wherever they had their test taken.

Documentation

The Welsh Results Reporting Service (WRRS) allows health care professionals (HCPs) across Wales to access, enter, and view laboratory results for pathology requests and any other associated results across all health boards in Wales, from both primary and secondary care, regardless of where they were requested, tested or provided. WRRS aims to save time, reduce test duplication, and improve patient safety.

The Welsh Clinical Portal (WCP) is a digital patient record across NHS Wales, which is available to all HCPs with appropriate permissions in relevant organisations. The WCP makes available patient information from several sources with a single log-on. The WCP gives clinicians pathology results (e.g. blood tests) for patients wherever they had their test taken, meaning patients can utilise mobile units or local centres rather than having to travel far.

Access request cost

Data provision is free from SAIL. Overall project costing depends on the number of people that require access to the SAIL Gateway, the activities that SAIL needs to complete (e.g. loading non-standard datasets), data refreshes, analytical work required, disclosure control process, and special case technological requirements.

Access method category

TRE/SDE

Access service description

The SAIL Databank is powered by the UK Secure e-Research Platform (UKSeRP). Following approval through safeguard processes, access to project-specific data within the secure environment is permitted using two-factor authentication.
