National Data Opt Out

You can choose whether your confidential patient information is used for research and planning. To find out more visit nhs.uk/your-nhs-data-matters.

​You do not need to do anything if you are happy about how your confidential patient information is used. You can change your choice at any time.

TYPE 1 OPT OUT: MEDICAL RECORDS HELD AT YOUR GP PRACTICE

​You can also tell your GP practice if you do not want your confidential patient information held in your GP medical record to be used for purposes other than your individual care. This is commonly called a type 1 opt-out. This opt-out request can only be recorded by your GP practice.

TYPE 2 OPT-OUT: INFORMATION HELD BY NHS DIGITAL

Previously you could tell your GP practice if you did not want NHS Digital, to share confidential patient information that we collect from across the health and care service for purposes other than your individual care. This was called a type 2 opt-out.

The type 2 opt-out was replaced by the national data opt-out. Type 2 opt-outs recorded on or before 11 October 2018 have been automatically converted to national data opt-outs.
