Storing information in one place makes it easier for healthcare staff to treat you in an emergency, or when your GP practice is closed.
This information could make a difference to how a doctor decides to care for you, for example which medicines they choose to prescribe for you.

If you choose to opt out of the scheme, then you will need to complete a form and bring it along to the surgery.
