‘Slower than handwriting:’ How digital systems fail to deliver time savings to users, and what we can do about it.

Digital transformation often promises to make things “faster and more efficient” for clinicians. The reality could not be more different. In practice, current digital systems are slower than the handwritten alternative. Currently, healthcare IT systems are failing to create time saving benefits to its users but instead contributing to inefficiency within the NHS. This panel explores how have we ended up in this situation, and what can we do about it now.
