A Commission to Catalyse Transformation in Healthcare
The NHS has celebrated technological milestones, but as the service approaches its future, a shift from analog to digital care demands more than isolated innovations. The NHS is struggling with integrating these advancements across the system, often hindered by bureaucratic barriers, siloed operations, and lack of consistent funding. Clinicians and patients express frustration, and the system needs change.
The Medical Technology Group (MTG) launches a Commission on NHS culture for innovation, aiming to drive systemic change. Their goal is to foster a broader, sustainable culture of innovation through understanding the intersections of value, accountability, best practices, patient involvement, and collaboration.
Over the next two years, the MTG will:
- Assess Medical Technology Maturity across Integrated Care Systems (ICSs).
- Re-define Value beyond cost to include broader societal and environmental impacts.
- Enhance Accountability in tech adoption to ensure better implementation.
- Promote Meaningful Patient Involvement in shaping healthcare delivery.
- Foster Collaboration among NHS decision-makers for streamlined, patient-centric innovations.
With a focus on evidence-based recommendations, the MTG aims to lead the charge for a healthcare system fit for the 21st century.
