Click here Go paperless with the MIG Our new case study explains how the Medical Interoperability Gateway (MIG) has helped Barnsley Clinical Commissioning Group and Barnsley Healthcare Federation CIC to win a national award for paperless records. They have been using the MIG since early 2016 to share GP records electronically. This has helped to provide clinicians with instant access to patient information and has reduced the need for letters and other paper-based correspondence.
