Digital healthcare transformation – the role of AI in self-assessment - Don’t get left behind

Connect Health “Change” has developed a series of webinars to make and embed transformation in healthcare. Aimed at system leaders and clinicians across the NHS, the webinars provide practical solutions to the challenging issues we are all grappling with.

View our past webinars, agendas, speakers and recordings here.

Digitally enabled patient care is outlined in the NHS Long Term plan as a key area for focus for the next 10 years. The plan states: in ten years’ time, we expect the existing model of care to look markedly different. The NHS will offer a ‘digital first’ option for most, allowing for longer and richer face-to-face consultations with clinicians where patients want or need it.

Primary care and outpatient services will have changed to a model of tiered escalation depending on need. Senior clinicians will be supported by digital tools, freeing trainees’ time to learn. People will be helped to stay well, to recognise important symptoms early, and to manage their own health, guided by digital tools.

The webinar will;

• Explore why AI triage is useful for commissioners, explaining where it sits in the pathway
• Hear lessons from Wales and NHS Trusts
• Demonstrate how AI adds value and is something tangible for the patient.

We have an impressive line-up of speakers:
