How to request access to the GMCR
The process has now been simplified so Contractors will only need to complete one form.
1. To request access to the GMCR visit the GMCR website and click the link to complete the digital GMCR Access Onboarding Form.
Along with your pharmacy details you will need to share the following information, so it’s recommended you have this to hand:
- ICO Registration Number and date of expiry – you can check this here.
- Data Protection & Security Toolkit status and date of submission.
- External Internet Provider (IP) address. To locate this go to whatismyip.com.
2. Once submitted, your request will be processed and the relevant Information Governance process completed.
3. Once approved, notification and login instructions will be sent to your pharmacy’s nhs.net email address.
Technical support for GMCR users
If your onboarding is complete but you’re unable to access the GMCR, log a case with Enlivio Go. This Quick Support Guide provides information on how to do this.
Important note: These changes will affect your pharmacy’s access to the GMCR.
- Change to internet provider – submit a new external IP address for whitelisting by logging a case via Enlivio Go.
- Change to ODS code (for example following a change of ownership) – submit a new GMCR Access Onboarding Form.
