Digital technology has already transformed how services are offered, accessed and used. Technology has enabled changes around the flow of information – not only between patient and clinician but also among staff working in different parts of the system – that help to ensure patients can access care from the right person in the right place at the right time. 

This event explored national strategy for virtual services and pathway redesign, with a focus on virtual dermatology services through the lens of England and NHS Improvement's (NHSEI’s) national teledermatology investment programme. As with many health services, the Covid-19 pandemic has increased pressure on dermatology services, creating an urgent need and significant potential to improve dermatology referral pathways with digital technology. We explored how national investment has supported regions to develop their virtual dermatology offers and how different parts of the system prioritise, implement and track different innovations to meet their local needs and improve outcomes. We provided an opportunity to share how experiences and lessons from dermatology offer wider learning across the NHS to continue empowering patients and supporting clinicians to create patient-centred care, leading to improved health outcomes.
