Introduction

The NHS Booking and Referral standard Standard (known as BaRS) is a framework standard for interoperability.

  • BaRS offers a universal standard way to digitise workflows that support all cross service patient journeys in the NHS

  • It is based on FHIR R4 and fully supports UK Core

    • It

    is a set of instructions, rules and guidance on how to use the building blocks of FHIR to digitise workflows

  • This provides a framework for vendors to build solutions in a way that guarantees compatibility

    • The majority of cross service flows in the NHS can be loosely defined as referrals however, there are many more formal definitions of referrals and BaRS is intended to support all of them and more. The primary goal is to create a framework that vendors can operate within to share information about a patient, with some sort of directive or request for further care or tasks. This can optionally be supported by an appointment (e.g. the reservation of resource for an event at a specific time/place).
