Join us live for HTN Digital ICS

Our one-day online event to support digital integrated care systems is nearly upon us, where we bring together health and care teams and suppliers to share innovations that can support digital ICSs, and hear from digital leaders who will discuss how they are tackling some of the challenges, sharing some of their approaches to system-wide working. 

Join HTN on 17 May where we cover topics such as digital strategy, developing a digital workforce, virtual wards, working with and procuring suppliers, patient-centered tools, and learning from blueprints which have benefited other ICSs.

You can register to attend the virtual event here.  

To see what’s on the horizon for the day, please read the agenda below:  

Working with digital suppliers: How ready is your ICS? (9:00-10:00) 

In this session, accuRx will run through the questions ICS leaders should ask when looking to understand how to procure suppliers that truly meet their needs in delivering integrated care across the whole system. 

Delivering care closer to home: How can your ICS achieve this? (10:00 – 11:00) 

Drawing on examples from HCI’s work in diabetes and neurodiversity, Richard Wyatt-Haines, founder and chairman, shares how Integrated Care Systems can digitally connect any pathway to enable, educate and empower people with the tools and information needed to be active partners in their care, and benefit from more care closer to home. 

Building the Digital Workforce (11:00 – 12:00) 

In this session, different approaches to the digital challenges in healthcare will be shared, and strategies and options available for ICSs will be explored.  

Supporting the ICS virtual ward agenda (12:00 – 1:00)  

This webinar will focus on the evolution of digital healthcare in the wake of the pandemic and what the latest guidance from NHSE means for the ICS digital agenda. It will consider the rise of virtual wards and how digital healthcare can support elective recovery in the NHS, and also discuss the requirements when building a digital first ICS. 

An outcome focussed approach to developing an ICS digital and data strategy – Cheshire and Merseyside ICS (2:00 – 3:00)  

Chesire and Merseyside ICS will share the view they have taken: digital and data strategy needs to be outcome focussed, informed by the public, and intelligence led. The team will also discuss an approach that will enable an ‘outcome audit trail’ from the strategy and associated investment costed plan back to the ICS transformation programmes, enabling the ICS and place digital and data investment decisions to be directly relatable to ‘turning the dials’ on one or more health and care outcomes. 

Blueprints to support digital ICS (4:00 – 5:00)  

Paul Charnley, Co-Chair of the Blueprinting Steering Group and Kwesi Afful, Assistant Director of Programmes, ICS Digital and Data, will be discussing blueprints to support digital ICSs.
