When you or your relatives are ill or in need of care don't you want the people looking after you to have the right information to look after you properly? Sharing the right information securely and at the right time with all providers of health and social care is both extremely important and also suprisingly difficult to achieve. Dr Lucy Munro (@DrLucyMM) is a GP and \xa0the Associate Medical Director for Primary Care at NHS National Services for Scotland (@NHSNSS). In a conversation with SNUG co-chairman Dr Neil Kelly (@NeilGKelly), she talks about her career and also how she has helped to develop the important new joint data controller arrangement recently negotiated between the Scottish General Practitioners Committee and the Primary Care Directorate of the Scottish government as part of the new GMS contract for Scottish General Practice. There is advice on what practices need to do now about completing the Joint Controller and Information Sharing Agreement document issued in November 2019. Just imagine you're in an Edinburgh coffee shop listening to them..\nSNUG members check out https://www.snughealth.org.uk/events/into-the-future-of-digital-healthcare-in-scotland/ and the latest newsletter https://www.snughealth.org.uk/news/snug-winter-2019-newsletter-now-available/\nDo give us some comments at https://twitter.com/snusersgroup or https://www.facebook.com/scottishnationalusersgroup
