Getting started
We support users through a structured but flexible onboarding approach.

End-of-contract data extraction
Patients and clinicians may continue to use the Vyne service regardless of the contractual status of an NHS trust or ICB. Therefore, patient and clinician data is stored in-line with the GDPR and removed from Vyne systems as per the stated requirements.

However, in-line with GDPR requirements, a patient or clinician can request a copy of their data or that their account be removed from the Vyne systems.

It is worth noting that the data shared with Vyne will continue to be available after the contract ends because access to the service will not be terminated. Modules may be disabled, but access to patient and order data will continue to be available to the registered users.

Additionally, data is shared with the contracted users on a regular basis through the Insights module.
End-of-contract process
The Vyne Online contract allows access to all modules available within the Vyne service, including, but not limited to:
Standardised search (aligning product selection to formulary)
- Bridge (referring patients to the community)
- Messenger (allowing clinicians to contact customer care)
- EPR integration (integration with an electronic patient record service such as Epic or Oracle Health)
The contract also includes, as required by the contracting authority, access to an implementation manager who will carry out initial scoping and training needs.

Differences between the mobile and desktop service
When running as a website the service is identical between mobile browser and desktop browser. There may be some layout differences to adapt to a smaller screen, but otherwise the functionality and behaviour are consistent across mobile and desktop.
The Vyne Online mobile app, available on iOS and Android, has identical functionality as the browser based service, but again the layout will be different to align with design expectations of a mobile app (e.g. button bar at the base of the screen).

Description of customisation
Individuals can configure security controls that include:

There are multiple modules available that can be enabled or disabled for a Vyne Online Team, including:
- Standardised search (aligning product selection to formulary)
- Bridge (referring patients to the community)
- Messenger (allowing clinicians to contact customer care)
- EPR integration (integration with an electronic patient record service such as Epic or Oracle Health)
Modules can only be enabled or disabled by Vyne Online support. Clinicians cannot action module changes themselves.

Scaling

Independence of resources
The Vyne Online service includes intelligent data caching so that the user has quick access to their data at the edge.
Additionally, data requests are monitored to ensure service standards are maintained.
Finally, for all data submissions to Vyne Online, the service will only show a success message to the user when all data has been fully stored and validated on the back-end systems.

Analytics

Metrics types
Vyne Online provides comprehensive service usage metrics through configurable Insights reports. Metrics include staff usage, formulary compliance, patient ongoing usage, product trends, and operational performance such as order processing and delivery times. Financial metrics cover cost savings achieved through formulary compliance, year-on-year and month-on-month prescription spend. User experience metrics include patient and customer feedback. Environmental metrics report estimated carbon emissions associated with ordering activity. Reports can be provided daily, weekly, or monthly, with near real-time dashboards in development.

Data importing and exporting

Data export approach
There is no facility for users to export their data other than the provisions provided for in GDPR.
This is to restrict security risk due to the storage of patient information that must not be shared any wider than required.
If there is a compelling use case to allow data export then it will be strongly considered, but currently no such use case has been suggested.
