In the recent Budget, Rt Hon Rachel Reeves emphasised a focus on #healthcare to address critical issues like backlogs and waiting times. With limited social care investment, Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) play a crucial role in ensuring whole-person, community-centred care. The Government’s commitment to digital transformation highlights the need for unified digital ecosystems to streamline processes, reduce duplication, and scale services efficiently. Health leaders now have an opportunity to adopt scalable, real-time end-to-end digital platforms that revolutionise healthcare delivery and enhance patient care, ensuring healthcare is more connected, more efficient, and future-ready.

Check out this insightful blog from Alison Tonge our Executive Director of Strategy and Innovation about how connected decision-making can help better manage health and care resources. In the current climate, ensuring resources are invested wisely within the NHS is paramount. While it is evident that better decisions lead to better outcomes and performance, the challenge lies in enabling the entire organisation and its partners to make better decisions together. Alison explores three key questions: 1. What are the characteristics of good decisions? 2. How can decisions be connected for value? 3. What are the enablers of systemised value-based decision-making? A great read for those interested in improving efficiency and value in healthcare. https://bit.ly/45EAfMl #NHS #NHSresources #NHSicb #NHSics #NHStrust #NHSefficiency #NHStransformation #Healthcare #ConnectedDecisionMaking #EfficiencyImprovement Olu Akinremi Katya Anthony

75% Of Care Providers Will “Reduce Or Stop Digital Transformation” Survey Reveal A new survey highlights a serious risk to the care sector, as providers feel forced to redirect expenditure away from digital developments in order to pay for increased workforce costs. 75% of adult social care providers say they will “reduce or stop digital transformation projects” as a result of future financial pressures. The findings, published by national trade body the Care Provider Alliance, indicate that crucial investment plans – including tech developments – will be adversely affected when National Insurance Contributions for employers and living wage increases are introduced. Speaking about the findings, Michelle Corrigan, Programme Director at Digital Care Hub, said: “We understand the pressure that care providers, commissioners and indeed policy makers are under. If, however, this level of disinvestment is replicated across the sector, thousands of people using care will lose out on the benefits of digital tech and the improved data sharing and decision-making that it brings. Investing in digital systems saves resources in the longer term - and improves care. Digital Care Hub will continue to advocate for digitisation and monitor developments. “This level of disinvestment risks wiping out the progress made in recent years by, for example, support from the Digitisting Social Care Fund which has helped many care providers to set up digital record systems for the first time. “It is virtually impossible for care providers to operate in the modern world without digital record systems that integrate well with hospitals, social services, GPs, pharmacists and other care and health partners. It’s an essential business expense which must be built into funding calculations. “Safe digital transformation is an essential element of the Government’s plans for improving health and social care. We are deeply concerned that the Autumn Budget plans will unintentionally make it impossible for care providers to continue their digital journey.” Digital Care Hub wants to hear from care providers about their plans for digital transformation and potential changes and impact.
