Digital transformation often promises to make things “faster and more efficient” for clinicians. The reality could not be more different.

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.
