Entering Health Identifier Service Numbers

The Individual Healthcare Identifier (IHI) numbers for practices and healthcare practitioners must be manually entered in Clinical and/or Pracsoft.

IHI numbers for patients are generated and entered automatically when the patient's record is saved. This requires an active Internet connection.
