Message Exchange for Social Care and Health (MESH) provides the ability to share data directly between health and care organisations and is the nationally recognised mechanism for this method of data sharing.
MESH can be used to:
- transfer large files (up to 50GB) securely from one organisation to another
- send a file to someone’s GP, using their NHS number and other details
- send documents, in human-readable formats such as PDFs, or machine-readable structured messages, such as FHIR messages, CSV files or binary files
