De-mystifying the NHS 10-Year Plan
Tailored training for Medilink Members
Working with healthcare, medtech and life sciences companies and organisations, including many within the NHS, Hill Dickinson is closely engaged with the practical and legal implications of the NHS 10-Year Plan – some of which are clearer than others.
Tailored Training Sessions for Medilink Members
Using this insight, we are offering tailored training sessions for Medilink Members, summarising some of the key elements of the plan, and linking these to steps you may consider taking now or in the future to ensure that you are best-placed to take advantage of new contracting structures and procurement routes.
Hill Dickinson are offering sessions at a fixed cost, and would be very happy to consider delivering these sessions to individual companies or groups of companies, either in person or online. Please get in touch with Gemma Badger if you would like to discuss this offer, or to discuss the plan more generally.
The 10-Year Plan: A focus on healthtech and innovation
Headlining the 10-Year Plan, and much trailed since its inclusion as a recommendation in the Darzi review, is the need for the NHS to move from analogue to digital. Unsurprisingly given this focus, the Plan promotes the adoption of innovation and healthtech in several contexts. Healthtech also underpins ideas enabling the other two shifts – from hospital to community, and sickness to prevention.
A review of the totality of the ‘tech’ proposals in the Plan would be lengthy, so here we have pulled out just a few of the key ideas and initiatives, and what they mean for NHS buyers and tech suppliers and innovators. There is something in there for everyone – from start-ups to scale-ups to established multinationals, alongside their tech-focussed counterparts working within the NHS.
