Imagine a healthcare journey that doesn’t reset every time a patient moves from one setting to another, where information flows seamlessly between hospital wards, community clinics, mental health services, and children’s care.
For too long, healthcare data has been trapped in silos, creating barriers between care settings. The NHS Federated Data Platform (FDP) has already transformed acute hospital settings, with nearly 70,000 additional procedures completed and over 1.1 million patient records validated.
The potential of connected data reaches far beyond hospital walls, which is why the Transforming Operational Delivery (TOD) workstream has been launched to extend the power of connected data to community settings.
A continuous story rather than disconnected chapters
The goal is to create a continuous story of patient care, rather than disconnected chapters. By doing so, the NHS aims to improve the healthcare journey for patients, making it more seamless and efficient.
