Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Does anyone know what happened to Babylon/GPAtHand/eMed? (feddit.dk)

I've been a very happy user of the GPAtHand and their various apps over the years. Was very handy when needing repeat prescriptions, combined with moving roughly every year to a new area of your city. Saved you having to register with a new GP every time.

The service has since descended into absolute omnishambles though, and currently the eMed app has a message after login in, saying this app is no longer available.

Nothing in terms of who to get in touch with or anything, if you would like to avail of the service. Or has it been completely axed? I used it roughly 6 months ago, and I've not had any communication about the service shutting down.

I know it changed owners from Babylon, which was excellent, to eMed, which seems like shit.

Any insight from anyone?

You should now use the NHS App for viewing your medical records, viewing test results and documents, and requesting repeat prescriptions. Appointments can be booked using our website. We are no longer using the eMed app.

Thank you! Turns out I should've just read their website properly. Will use the NHS app in that case.
