Description
The National Programme for IT promised to transform the NHS, both administratively and in terms of patient care. The promises seemed too good to be true: a magic pill in a couple of years. Now all we hear are massive slippages with little delivered against spiralling costs. But is this really the case? Where is the programme, our tax money, and some of our careers all heading? Brian Derry and Andrew Haw will give an NHS practitioners’ view of the Programme in a joint presentation and debate.
Brian is Chair of ASSIST (Association for Informatics Professionals in Health and Social Care), and is a member of the BCS Health Informatics Forum strategic panel.
Andrew is Chair of the BCS-HIF Professional Development Board and immediate past Chair of ASSIST
