NHSX
In January 2019 the UK Government published its ‘ Long Term Plan ’ for the NHS . A key part of this is digital transformation , with goals including increasing digital access for patients , using predictive analytics to support local health systems , and deploying AI to help clinicians apply best practice . In July 2019 an organisation called NHSX was formed , responsible for driving digital transformation and leading its policy and implementation . “ Better technology is vital to have and embracing it is the only way to make the NHS sustainable over the long term ” Secretary of State for Health and Social Care Matt Hancock said earlier this year .
