What does the Grey dot mean after the NHS number on some patients in Population view?

In the Population View, a grey dot appears next to the NHS number for any patient whose record has been accessed by expanding their row and clicking one of the following buttons:

  • Open in Patient View
  • Open in EMIS/SystemOne

This indicates that you have initiated viewing their record directly from the Population View.

The grey dot remains visible for 4 hours, serving as a visual indicator to help you track which patient records have recently been reviewed.

Note: The grey dot will reset once the user logs out, ensuring a fresh view for each session.
