About the Role
The Medical Summariser and Registration Clerk plays a vital role in managing the full patient medical records pathway from registration through to deduction on the EMIS clinical system. This role requires accuracy and adherence to practice protocols to ensure patient records are up to date and correctly summarised. Key responsibilities include reviewing and summarising patient medical histories, accurately coding data, processing clinical letters, and managing all incoming correspondence. The role also involves scanning and inputting patient-related documentation, answering phone calls, conducting system searches, and supporting clinical staff with general administrative tasks. Additionally, the post holder may assist with updating practice policies, participating in audits, providing reception cover, booking appointments, and completing opening and closing procedures as required. Maintaining a clean and efficient working environment is essential to support smooth practice operations.
Experience
Experience working with medical records and clinical systems such as EMIS is highly desirable. Previous experience in a healthcare administrative role or medical summarising is advantageous but not essential.
About you
You should be detail-oriented, organised, and able to work accurately under pressure. Strong communication skills and the ability to manage multiple tasks efficiently are important. You must be proactive, reliable, and able to work both independently and as part of a team. A commitment to maintaining patient confidentiality and adhering to data protection standards is essential.
Qualifications
No formal qualifications are specified; however, familiarity with medical terminology and clinical coding is beneficial. Training will be provided to support the development of necessary skills and knowledge.
