Tender description

The 4 GP IT suppliers are: — Egton Medical Information Systems (EMIS), — the phoenix partnership, — INPS vision, — Microtest. The contract is for extracting the data from GP's, processing the data and then forwarding to PHE. The supplier is required to complete weekly, monthly and annual vaccine extractions.
