Digital

innovation to protect the vulnerable

In 2020 , NHSX initiated a new Joined-Up Care Programme to build on the digital health gains achieved during the COVID-19 pandemic and accelerate the scale of using digital innovations to transform patient care .

As part of this programme , we worked closely with the three Integrated Care Systems ( ICSs ) in our region to gather information about promising innovations that could meet their needs and enable them to make informed decisions about which approach and product to select . We helped to ensure that our partners saw all options available and then provided support to secure funding and implement their chosen solutions .
