I agree we do need to meet the information needs of clinical commissioning groups but feel it more important to meet the needs of patients and users first.Alilsa, we did speak on this matter at the last but one Y&H SHA public board meeting.All these changes need to take the patients along with them not ignore them until an agreed system is in place thats use able

I think it is critical to understand the information needs of clinical commissioning groups, public health practitioners, doctors, nurses etc. etc. If the people who are responsible for treating patients, preventing disease and addressing threats to public health do not have access to the right kind of information and the right time, then we have do not have a health and care system or people that can run it and therefore we will fail to deliver health and care services based on the best available evidence.
