Outline National Strategy for Information Technology in Health and Care (DHSC / BBC News / NHS England / NIHR / HEE / WHO / SMF / CQC)

Posted on October 21, 2018 by Dementia and Elderly Care News

Summary

Matt Hancock, Health and Social Care Secretary, has announced the latest vision for IT modernisation in the NHS, This will involve moving applications / data to cloud-based services, and technical standards which will allow NHS IT systems to be interoperable and upgradable. Access to up-to-date patient records and data in real-time will support good quality and prompt care. The NHS IT infrastructure should deliver better services and facilitate innovation. The main section headings are:

Cautionary Notes

Progress has not always gone to plan, in recent history:

The Healthtech Advisory Board

An advisory board has been created to advise Matt Hancock’s department, regarding the uses of technology in health and social care, and linking this closely to promoting a culture of innovation in the NHS.

“Medicine is driven by information: better use of data can revolutionise health care”.

Technologically-Enabled Redesign of the Outpatient Referrals System?

Professor Stephen Powis, NHS England National Medical Director, believes use of information technology should be able to reduce the thousands of unnecessary outpatient appointments each day. Commonplace digital solutions – including Skype, apps and online tools – could help to prevent avoidable hospital visits, avoid patients taking time off work and school needlessly, while saving on NHS running costs.

Currently there are 127 million outpatient appointments in the UK per year; roughly five times more than the number of patients using A&E. About a fifth of appointments get cancelled, or patients don’t turn up.

Extension of the 100,000 Genome Project?

The 100,000 Genome Project (launched in 2012) reached its target in December 2018. The NHS has early plans for Genomic England, a company set-up and owned by the NHS, to recruit genomic volunteers whose sequenced genomic information (duly pooled and anonymised) may contribute to developments in the understanding and possible future treatment of serious health conditions, including cancer and dementia.

Imperial College London’s Care Research and Technology Centre

Possibly of interest, research into developing the “healthy dementia home” will study the use of sensors and wearable devices to monitor physical deterioration, or changes in patients’ behaviour, which could put persons with dementia at risk of hospital admission. Other applications being research include RTLS/RFID tracking, robotic devices and sleep monitors.

World Health Organization (WHO)’s Corrective to Over-Optimistic IT Mania?

This guideline offers an approach to weighing the evidence on how digital health interventions can contribute towards health services improvement. The methodology involves careful and balanced assessment of such interventions based on impact criteria including benefits, harms, acceptability, feasibility, resource use and equity.

Note: “Digital health interventions are not a substitute for functioning health systems, and there are significant limitations to what digital health is able to address”.

Issues Limiting Analytical Capability in Health Care

The Health Foundation’s “Untapped potential: investing in health and care data analytics” report explains nine benefits from more investment in analytical capability:

Supporting clinical decision-making.
Supporting innovation and improvement in care.
Facilitating board-level oversight of complex organisations and care systems.
Improving everyday management.
Improving responsiveness to national initiatives and regulation.
Improving resource allocation.
Improving patient flow.
Supporting new data and new digital tools.
Helping patients and raising public interaction with health-related information / patient information.

Scoping the Future Development of Digital Technology in the NHS

A Social Market Foundation report considers the potential of digital technology throughout the patient care “journey” (i.e. from prevention in the community, diagnosis and referral involving primary and secondary care, and the management of long-term conditions):

Stage 1 of the patient journey: preventing diseases.
Stage 2 of the patient journey: diagnosis in the community.
Stage 3 of the patient journey: digital technology in primary care.
Stage 4 of the patient journey: digital technology in secondary care.
Stage 5 of the patient journey: managing long-term conditions.
