Continuing Healthcare digital transformation
Continuing Healthcare is the focus of a Strategic Improvement Programme from NHS England to improve the Quality, performance and patient/family experience of the service. Digital transformation is key to improving many aspects of the assessment and workflows to take a patient case from referral through the assessment process to then deliver a funding decision for care.
IEG4 has developed a fully digital referral and assessment solution in collaboration with front-line clinicians, administrators and decision makers. This digitisation of the service has demonstrated substantial improvements in the quality and timeliness of assessments and decisions
