As one of the three shifts set out in the 10 Year Health Plan, technology and the digitisation of health and care is expected to change the way people access and interact with services, reduce administrative tasks to free up staff time, and even prevent ill health occurring in the first place.
While the technology landscape is evolving rapidly, the NHS itself is also undergoing significant structural change, including the planned abolition of NHS England and substantial cuts across integrated care boards. These changes have direct implications for the entire workforce, and the patients and communities they support.
In this free online event, we explored what health and care leaders need to do to truly shift from analogue to digital; recognising that transformation, innovation and partnership working demands good leadership, the right infrastructure and capacity and capability development.
In the event, we discussed:
the current state of digital leadership across systems and organisations with different levels of digital maturity
examples where structural changes and budget cuts are having an impact on digital priorities outlined in the 10 Year Health Plan
emerging approaches to deliver digital priorities that better care for patients.
