Capita's Electronic Health Records Conference

5 May 2011, London, United Kingdom.
Electronic Health Records are a major focus of the Coalition's Liberating the NHS: An Information Revolution strategic review on information management across health and social care. With the consultation responses under consideration, Capita's Electronic Health Records Conference is timed to examine the primary drivers emerging from this bold new decentralisation strategy. Electronic health records will be at the heart of delivering transparency and patient choice in the sharing, management, disposal, consent and security of patient data.

Realising the ambitions set out in the NHS White Paper will require commitment from clinicians and information professionals to come together, understand the direction of policy and share best approaches to feasible implementation.

This agenda promises to do exactly that, by bringing you the expert policy and practitioner leaders in electronic health records management from national and local perspectives to examine. Benchmark, network together and explore:

  • Transparency in records management processes
  • Working with GPs as the new commissioners of local public health service
  • Joining up patient consent across records providers
  • Empowering patient ownership, access and control of their records
  • Data security and confidentiality concerns
  • Formulating business cases and codes of practice for electronic health services
  • Partnership accountability and best practice sharing models with social care, mental health and the third sector
  • Enabling online patient access, including elderly and hard to reach groups

Speakers

  • Chair: Dr Glyn Hayes, President, UKCHIP
  • Dawn Monaghan, Group Manager, Public Services, Strategic Liaison, Information Commissioner's Office
  • Dr Brian Fisher MBE, Managing Director, PAERS Ltd and Patient and Public Involvement Lead, NHS Alliance
