When registering, or making changes on the NHS LSF system, you’ll be sent an SMS code to your mobile phone which you must enter on the system.
You can request a maximum of 10 codes per 6 hour period.
If you do not have access to the phone the SMS code is being sent to, you’ll be given an option to change the number.
