Better care starts with better visibility.

Medical Interoperability Gateway (MIG) connects patient information across health and care settings, giving authorised professionals access to real-time patient records when they need them most. By bringing information together, MIG helps teams collaborate more effectively, make confident decisions faster and create a more connected experience for patients. Because when information flows, care follows.

Healthcare doesn't happen in one place. Neither should patient information.

MIG enables secure, real-time sharing of patient records across health and care organisations, helping teams see a more complete picture of the people they support. Information is available within existing workflows, creating a simpler way to access the context needed to make confident decisions.

Whether supporting integrated care, improving collaboration between services or reducing duplication, MIG helps organisations create a more connected healthcare experience for both professionals and patients.

MIG is designed to connect information across health and social care environments, enabling organisations to unlock value from existing systems rather than replace them.

Connected datasets

Access a broad range of health and social care information through a single interoperability platform, helping professionals build a more complete picture of every patient.

Secure document exchange

Share discharge summaries, clinical letters and other key documents securely between care providers, reducing delays and improving continuity of care.

Shared Record Viewer (SRV)

Extend access to shared records through a secure browser-based portal, enabling teams to view patient information even without a clinical system integration.

"GP and community care data that MIG supplies is the bedrock of Connecting Care."
