Digital and Transparency Zone
The Digital and Transparency Zone will delve into the need to drive consistency in the systems that the NHS deploy, so that quality data can be used as a strategic asset and support the organisation to ensure greater transparency.
The Commercial Framework outlines plans to develop and maintain a digital strategy for NHS Commercial to promote and drive continual investment in relevant, modern technology across the life cycle of the procurement and supply management function.
While the NHS’ digital transformation continues with the use of technology to help health and care professionals communicate better and enable people to access the care they need quickly and easily, when it suits them.
The Digital + Transparency Zone will provide attendees with the chance to hear from key figures in the health sector in a range of topical educational and interactive sessions designed specifically to enhance your knowledge and ability to contribute to the health sector’s digital and technology agenda.
