National Vision User Group
The National Vision User Group is an independent non-profit making organisation supporting general practices that use the Vision, a Windows based software package used in Primary Health Care across the United Kingdom and supplied by INPS. It was established in 1984 and is the oldest independent user group in GP computing. It is run by users for users and helps practices to get the most out of Vision.
