Healthcare IT: Back to Normal or Back to Better?

As the digital era continues to evolve, strategic partnerships in tech are set to become even more important.
Together with our community of partners, we continue to advance the UK’s national capability in a variety of ways. On one hand, we are providing better outcomes and better efficiencies through the use of digital technologies in the public sector. On the other hand, our partnerships foster a community with a collective vision to grow and develop the UK technology sector as part of the post-Brexit industrial strategy.
To build upon and explore the benefits of strategic partnerships in a tech era, we're delighted to host our “Powered by Partnerships” event at 3pm on Thursday 10th December 2020.

The recent invalidation of the EU-US Privacy Shield framework by the European Court of Justice has far reaching impact for organisations that rely on the free flow of data between the EEA and the US. Our webinar will focus on both the immediate steps that need to be taken as well as the longer- term implications of the judgement in the context of Brexit.
Our expert panellists will be Jonathan McDonald, partner and lead of the data protection and privacy practice at Charles Russell Speechlys LLP and Owen Sayers, Enterprise Architect and data protection, privacy and security specialist with extensive public sector and law enforcement experience. Jonathan and Owen will be hosted by John Godwin, UKCloud’s Director of Information Assurance and Compliance.

During the pandemic, it’s become more apparent than ever of the need for healthcare organisations, local councils, third sector and voluntary groups to be able to work together to deliver the best care. But delivering new care models with integrated information is really difficult when information doesn’t easily and securely flow across different systems. In this presentation, Paul Targett, Managing Director RIVIAM Digital Care, share’s his insights from recent customer projects where RIVIAM’s interoperable cloud services have been used to transform care delivery, improving lives.

The transition to a cloud-first approach for digital healthcare solutions has been part of the roadmap for most leading healthcare organisations’ digital strategy. As the volume of digital healthcare enterprises in the market continues to expand, alongside the capability of each product or service to provide value add to healthcare provision and patient experience or outcomes, it is vital that we move to a cloud-based ecosystem of interoperable solutions that enable a streamlined user experience greater than can be achieved by siloed products. We present our experience of the interoperability challenges faced in healthcare, utilising a case study of the accomplishments possible through integrated solutions

Mayden’s iaptus predates Instagram “SaaS” and even “Cloud” as a widely used term. 13 years ago selling a patient record system to NHS trusts that they didn’t keep on servers in their basements felt obvious but was probably foolhardy. This is the story of Maydens’ journey from squashed servers in Co-located data centers to the cloud.

What could possibly go wrong?...

Years of austerity and tight cost control have resulted in 'make do' actions and older infrastructure, which compromises the overall security, resilience and scalability of IT in Local Government. In this talk, our panel will discuss how to reduce the time, cost and risk of modernising existing IT so local authorities can deliver innovative citizen services rather than merely maintaining or building IT systems.

Even before Covid-19, many public sector service delivery teams were on the path to modernising their IT ecosystems utilising emerging and existing technologies. As IT estates grow, its important that you have full visibility across the environment and maintain cost controls.
