Bringing together stakeholders and policymakers, this seminar was an opportunity to assess the next steps for electronic health records and future developments for IT in the NHS.
Delegates considered the challenges in implementing a system of paperless health and social care records by 2020 - with Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) benchmarking their digital services and submitting delivery plans for eradicating the use of paper across all health and care in line with National Information Board’s Personalised Health and Care 2020 framework, and the Government pledging more than £4bn in technology to support the transformation of health and care.
Further sessions focused on the use of patient data to improve the quality of healthcare research and the next steps for information governance, with the National Data Guardian and CQC taking on new responsibilities in overseeing the use of patient records in health and care.
