Healthcare Roundup 22 September 2017

Last week, the Health and Care Expo was warned that the NHS could be in for a tough winter. This week, the health press reported that chief executives had been told in no uncertain terms that they had to get their A&E departments sorted out first; and their jobs would be on the line if targets slipped. In Highland Marketing guest interviews, Lyn Whitfield talks to Mark England, chief of staff for Bedfordshire, Luton and Dunstable STP, and Tara Donnelly, who heads up DigitalHealth.London, about how new ways of working and better use of smart tech could address these challenges in the longer term. Both England and Donnelly are speaking at the UK Health Show, from where Highland Marketing will be reporting next week.
