NHS decision-makers looking to adopt digital solutions to support pre-operative care can find operational guidance on the various options on GIRFT’s FutureNHS workspace.
Pre-operative support guidance has been developed as part of the programme’s review of digital health technologies (DHTs), providing a framework for assessing and evaluating the DHTs available (at July 2023).
Aimed at healthcare administrators, clinical decision-makers, procurement officers, technology evaluation teams, IT teams or anyone involved in scoping and selecting a suitable DHT for their local system, the guide aims to streamline the process of evaluating and implementing DHTs to improve care and outcomes for patients.
Offering provider comparison tables for 15 suppliers, the guide provides comparative information necessary for assessing DHTs against local service needs and has been drawn from a comprehensive scan of the market and with input from experts in the field and DHT suppliers.
