Psyomics has joined The Access Group’s Partner Programme, enabling its beseen™ platform to extend the functionality of its current integration with Access Rio EPR – the electronic patient record system used by half of the UK’s mental health trusts.
The partnership marks a significant step forward for Mental Health Trusts looking to improve digital integration, reduce administrative burden on clinicians, and improve patient access to services.
Through the planned integration development, patient-reported information collected through Psyomics’ beseen™ platform is intended to be made available within Access Rio EPR, helping clinicians access comprehensive patient reported information ahead of appointments.
The intended integration is being designed to support greater automation of routine processes such as sending validated outcome measures, scoring responses, and uploading results into the patient record. Clinicians can then view this information alongside other key clinical data to support formulation and decision-making.
Developed by clinicians, Psyomics’ technology captures patient-reported information including self-reported symptoms, social factors, and the wider determinants of health. This helps provide clinicians with a more holistic understanding of an individual’s needs before the first appointment, supporting more efficient pathways to care and improved system flow.
The partnership also supports NHS England’s focus on improving clinical productivity and reducing waiting times across mental health services.
Dr Melinda Rees said: “I’m delighted to announce that we’re now working with the team at Access Rio EPR. Together, we’re helping Mental Health Trusts strengthen connectivity across their digital systems while reducing administrative burden on clinicians.
“By automating routine processes and enabling patient information to flow seamlessly into the clinical record, we can help services operate more efficiently and support clinicians to spend more meaningful time with patients.”
Steve Wightman, Managing Director, Access Health, The Access Group, adds: “Mental health services are under significant pressure to reduce waiting times and get more from every clinical interaction. Psyomics joining our Partner Programme means clinicians using Rio can receive a richer picture of the patient before the appointment begins, without adding to their administrative burden.
“Breaking down information silos across health systems is central to what we do. When patient-reported data flows directly into the clinical record, it removes duplication, supports better decision-making, and helps clinicians spend more time on care. We’re pleased to welcome Psyomics as a partner and look forward to seeing the difference this makes for mental health teams and their patients.”
