Was with a clinician yesterday who uses a modern EHR "great for the patient, great for the admin staff, terrible for the clinician, I didn't train to do this. I am now seeing less patients."... if you don't optimize the system then EPRs will COST YOU MORE!

Imagine if every branch of Waitrose or Tesco could choose its own IT systems. That is effectively what we have in the NHS with hospitals and Integrated Care Board selecting the systems they use locally. This leads to numerous problems in trying to deliver health services.

3 policies to fix the NHS? I’ll go first 1. Refund primary care. Make Drs want to be GP partners running responsible, profitable practices 2. Unified NHS computer system 3. Utilising 2, focused outcome based research so that policy isn’t driven by gameable process measures

The smartest people I know all have this in common: They change their minds often. It’s not a weakness, being wishy-washy, or a sign of flaky beliefs. It’s proof that their ego doesn’t outrank new information. The goal isn't to be right, it's to get it right.

Millennials! Imagine you had to pay 12p for every text you send? Might stop the text conversations you proceed with -Hi -Good morning! -How are you? -I have a question to ask -I know it’s early but it’s important -I need to know -If you’re able to answer… [I’ll get my stick…]

Doctors currently earn £18.62 an hour, they are asking for £22.67 an hour. Their assistants get paid £24.45 an hour. How can Wes Streeting defend paying doctors less than their assistants?
