The UK’s new coalition government is embarking on a radical reform of the NHS and has promised to cut administrative costs by 33% and ‘set government data free’ to increase accountability and transparency. Furthermore, in real-terms, the cost of healthcare is increasing due to inflation and increased life expectancy of the population. Some savings will inevitably come from departmental restructuring and redundancies but investment in IT will have to play a central role in longer term cost reduction and efficiency savings as well as a key enabler in opening and making sense of data.

Furthermore…there are huge potential savings by reducing paper records, self-service kiosks, secretarial pooling and telehealthcare. |
