Access to the right data, at the right time, is essential for the NHS to deliver safe, efficient and joined up care. Yet too often, information is still trapped in disconnected systems, duplicated across platforms or delayed in reaching the people who need it. This slows down decision making, fragments care and wastes time for staff.
As health systems push for better interoperability and real time insights, private sector partners are helping to build the foundations: from the infrastructure and APIs that connect systems, to the tools that turn raw data into action.
This award will recognise a data integration initiative that has made a meaningful difference to care delivery. Judges will be looking for projects that go beyond compliance, using data to inform, anticipate and transform how services are delivered across organisations or settings.
Eligibility
- Entrants are technology providers, consultancies or other private sector organisations working in partnership with NHS organisations, to deliver improved information sharing mechanisms across different organisations, at a PCN, ICS, regional or wider level
- Evidence will be related to ongoing or completed projects with a system from the past 2 years
