Joining the EeRS in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough
9 September 2022
Cambridgeshire and Peterborough EeRS service
Dear Colleagues,
Happy New Year!!!
We are delighted to now be able to announce that the EeRS project has moved from being a pilot to being the means by which all referrals will ultimately be made to the 3 main hospitals in the County. This will allow for you to ask for advice and guidance from the hospital and feedback data on whether the referral has been accepted or where the patient is in the system.
In readiness for this change, we now invite all practices to begin the sign-up process for the service.
Can I join if my I am part of a chain/multiple practice organisation?
Your head office must authorise your participation in the EeRS solution, to ensure this is aligned to their national roll out plans. Prior to signing up, please speak to your head office to confirm authorisation is given.
How does my Practice join?
Please click on either the link below, or scan the QR code, which will take you to a sign-up form. This will only take few minutes to complete. If you are concerned about the validity of this email, these links are also available via the Cambs LOC website directly.

You will then be contacted over the coming weeks by Cinapsis with information to help familiarise you with the new software.
Who can I speak to if I have any questions?
Please contact the Cambs LOC via the Cambs LOC website for any queries about the sign-up process or the EeRS programme.
