Episode 2 of the Reimagining Strategic Commissioning podcast explores how strategic commissioning can help the NHS move from analogue to digital.
NHS England PodcastShow Notes
The discussion between Rachel Power, Minal Bakhai, Amanda Sullivan and Patricia Miller considers how joined-up data, shared patient records, population health insights, digital innovation and AI can support more preventative, personalised and integrated care. The episode highlights the role of ICBs in commissioning inclusive, accessible and digitally enabled services that improve outcomes while maintaining non-digital routes for those who need them.
