Wes Streeting is talking about "NHS Patient Passports" to give people control of their health records to allow their data to flow with them as they move from service to service within the health system.

This links to the National Data Library announcement within the October 24 budget. Can we use UK Government data to unlock more efficient services and attract funding from commercial partners?

We unpick what this might mean for service quality, privacy, governance and security for NHS data.

The DDRB provides an annual report making recommendations to the government about pay awards for doctors and dentists in the UK. 

The headline figures are eagerly anticipated and widely quoted and discussed. But have you ever wondered what is actually in the report? What is the remit of the DDRB and how do they reach their conclusions?

We take a brief look at this weighty annual report to try and answer these questions.

Smarter, autonomous GP triage with Rapid Health, find out more at https://rapidhealth.ai

Traditional online consultation systems, even AI-enhanced ones, still require staff to review and respond to patient requests.  Smart Triage offers a new and distinct capability - autonomously assessing, navigating, and responding to patients online, eliminating the need for clinical or administrative staff input.  

Smart Triage revolutionises the process, even allowing patients to instantly book clinically appropriate (right clinician) and clinically prioritised (right time) appointments, immediately after their online assessment, without delay.  This means less patient waiting and delays to care, and more time for care navigators and clinicians to focus on what really matters - delivering great care.
