When releasing medical records for patients who have moved to another Home Nation (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland), only paper medical records should be sent.

Please do not send records via CD, floppy disk, USB drive, or any other digital media. This is due to information governance and security concerns, as well as compatibility issues.

If any part of a patient's medical record is already contained on CD, floppy disk, USB drive or any other digital media, please print out the full medical records, including the electronic summary and send these via the usual record collection process.

If you need to request additional transit labels, use the 'Request movement' tab on PCSE Online. Here is a video to show you the process.
