OUH Docman Rejection Process

This method does not apply to Practices using Docman 10 or Docman 7.

To ensure that OUH can receive meaningful Docman rejection feedback from MESH-enabled GP Practices (SystmOne or EMIS), OUH has developed this rejection process to support the capturing of all necessary information.

Clinical correspondence rejection process

You must send the email from an nhs.net email address or DCB1596 compliant email.

OUH is DCB1596 compliant so secure emails can be sent to @ouh.nhs.uk addresses.

If clinical correspondence received by post is believed to be an error, please return to sender with reason enclosed, as per current practice.

Follow steps below

Please copy and paste the template below into an email and complete all details requested before sending.

Supplying all information requested and choosing the correct rejection reason from those listed will save time and the need for us to have to contact you for any missing information.

There should only be one reason selected per rejected letter.

Your rejection will be processed at OUH and errors corrected by the relevant specialty.

The correspondence will then be resent to you.
