NHSX sets out digital guidance for NHS trusts

NHSX has published new digital guidelines for NHS leaders and organisations.

The ‘What Good Looks Like’ framework aims to give NHS managers clear instructions on using digital in their service.

It calls for patients to be able to digitally access their care plans and test results, for trusts to explore new ways of delivering care such as remote monitoring and consultations, and to improve care using electronic prescribing systems.

Local bodies will be given access to an online knowledge base which will include blueprints, standards, templates, real-life examples and best practice guides for the new guidelines.
