A low-code / no-code apps and automation approach could :
• Connect the backend processes
• Remove the additional manual work this creates for busy NHS procurement teams
• Help streamline the supply chain
• All this and with a focus on user-centricity
Low-code / no-code is all about speed . It enables both technically-minded Citizen Developers and high-code developers to build digital solutions up to 20x faster .
“ The combination of apps and automation in a single platform is where it gets really exciting for healthcare organisations ,” said Rule . “ Not only does it help overcome the interoperability challenges facing the sector , but the integration of apps with automation projects allows organisations to reimagine business processes and enhance patient pathways .”
This includes applications that collect patient data into a single record , to automating referrals that can help tackle patient backlogs . No-code can help the NHS transform processes , enhance patient pathways , and improve speed and agility .
“ For instance , Toca helped Ashford and St Peter ’ s Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust build a Cancer Pathways app in just five days ,” said Rule . “ The app offers instant visibility into where patients are in their treatment journey , and automatically syncs with a patient tracking list that is filtered daily to ensure the status of their care is up-to-date .” When patient journeys are fully tracked and clinical staff can have visibility into their progress and any action required , it will be a realised dream for Rule .
After all , it ’ s not just achieving outstanding patient care which is important to Toca , but allowing healthcare workers to work smoothly and continuously , with a digital support system that aids them in this work , not providing another exhausting hurdle .
