Fantastic to visit Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children today, where met with consultants and clinicians. They demonstrated how they are utilising data and innovation to improve care. As part of our 10 Year Health Plan, shifting from analogue to digital is vital to building an NHS fit for the future.
