UHIDs
A UHID identifies a person, not a visit and not a file. It is issued once and does not change when the patient moves between clinics.

- Your own patient numbering can run alongside it if you already have one.
- A UHID is never reused, including after a merge.
- If a record was created with the wrong identity — a relative’s details, say — it is repaired rather than deleted, and the repair is logged.
