description: EMIS Health is a United Kingdom health-technology company and one of the two dominant GP clinical-system providers
  in the NHS (alongside TPP SystmOne), supplying the EMIS Web electronic patient record used across primary care, community
  pharmacy, and other care settings. EMIS is migrating from EMIS Web to EMIS-X, a cloud-first platform, and exposes third-party
  integration through the EMIS Partner Developer Portal at docs.partner.emis-x.uk. The gated partner programme documents a
  RESTful JSON Partner API (PAPI) covering appointments, the clinical/medical record, patient demographics and matching, organisation
  lookup and clinical searches, plus EMIS-X App Launch and an EMIS-X Analytics data warehouse. Authentication is OAuth2 /
  OIDC (Microsoft Entra External ID / Azure AD B2C) using authorization-code, PKCE, and client-credentials flows with scoped
  JWT access tokens; native HL7 FHIR resource support is documented as upcoming rather than yet available.
