Boris Johnson was back in Number 10 Downing Street. The returning prime minister didn’t hold a Cabinet reshuffle, so Matt Hancock was also back at the Department of Health and Social Care. In a speech to the Policy Exchange think-tank, he reiterated his commitment to technology. He also hinted at a “digital aspirant” programme for non-global digital exemplar trusts.
Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust pursued its own digital aspirations by going live with the Allscripts Sunrise electronic patient record. Taunton and Somerset NHS Foundation Trust became the latest to sign up for Alcidion’s Patientrack. And everybody prepared for a well-earned holiday season.
