In this “emergency” podcast we focus on the major announcement that One Advanced has acquired the Vision system, bringing long-awaited clarity after months of uncertainty following INPS’s administration last December. Dr David Cooper and Dr Bill Martin, co-chairs of SNUG, discuss the relief this brings to Vision practices, staff, and NHS teams who had been left in limbo. They reflect on the resilience shown by Vision’s workforce during this challenging period and explore the practical implications for practices now facing rapid transitions. While some EMIS users had quietly hoped for a different outcome, the contractual and financial reality meant that finding a buyer for Vision was the most feasible path forward.

The conversation also explores the potential benefits and risks of having a single supplier for both Vision and Docman 10, including opportunities for better integration but also concerns about market competition and innovation. While the migration will be demanding, with practices needing strong change management and training, practices will be supported by trainers and facilitators through the process. Ultimately, the mood was one of cautious relief: challenges lie ahead, but GP IT Re-Provisioning can now move forward after a prolonged period of uncertainty.
