With the 2014 Health+Care show getting under way in London today, the country’s public health authorities are gathering to discuss the state of the nation’s
health and the innovative ways in which the NHS is evolving to manage the £2 billion funding gap it’s faced with.
Health Diagnostics are
present and amongst the show’s official top 20 ‘must see’ exhibitors. In
addition to showcasing Health Options® – one of the leading risk assessment
software programmes for NHS Health Checks – we’ll be taking delegates through
some of the latest tools for delivering and managing the national programme.
Amongst the tools
displayed on stand M40 will be the new 'call and recall' system that’s allowing public
health leads to find, invite and deliver health checks to their target cohorts.
Our secure data transfer module for returning patient data to any GP system
will also be on show alongside a series of new health check training videos
that we've produced with the help of our NHS and Local Authority partners.
With all the elements
in place, Health Diagnostics’ system represents the complete solution for
delivering health checks:
Identify and invite with 'call and recall'
As the first link in
the chain of delivery, the call and recall module allows for targeted NHS
Health Check invites to be sent to individuals. By sampling the population, the
software can determine precisely those that are eligible and at risk, as well as
generate tailored invites for the identified cohort.
Deliver a health check with Health Options® software
We’ll be taking
delegates through the CVD risk assessment software that’s used by Local
Authorities up and down the country. Having been designed with ease-of-use in
mind, the software structures and supports the delivery of motivational
consultations. With a range of additional functions for data management, the IT
solution is both at the core of the data transfer process and the front-line of
health check delivery.
Receive detailed public health analysis
We’ll be showing
examples of our reports that provide commissioners with detailed analysis on local
health trends and provider performance. Generated by analysing data that’s been
securely sent to us over an encrypted network, these reports are there to help
those in charge make fully informed decisions when shaping local public health
policy.
Transfer data to any GP system
Returning data to any
GP clinical system securely via the N3 network has, for a long time, been the
holy grail of a complete ‘end-to-end’ delivery model. Health Diagnostics have
responded to this need and will be taking delegates through the tool we’ve
developed for transferring data back from service providers, to individual
patient records.
Use the latest training resources
We've worked closely with our Local Authority and NHS partners to produce training videos demonstrating full consultations that adhere to best practice. In addition, a promotional video that can be used by providers in
venues and online has been made freely available. These can be viewed here.
So if you're at the show today or tomorrow and are interested in how NHS Health Checks are being managed centrally and delivered locally, we'd love to have a chat. You'll find us at stand M40!
