Release APIM-R-1.35 - 13 Aug 2024

Find out about the NHS e-Referral Service (e-RS) API release.

This feature went live in e-RS Release 14.4 (09 August 2024).

The information below was correct at the time of release.


1.0 Naming of cancellation reasons

As part of the work to modernise the e-RS layout and content, we are making minor text changes to the referral cancellation reasons. As this is a global change, the cancellation reasons will change in the professional web application as well as the API.

The API cancellation code, e.g. PATIENT_ILL, will remain the same. Only the display value is changing. For example, "Patient is ill" will change to "Patient is sick".

The reference data endpoint, A004 - Retrieve reference data, will provide new display values following this change.
