The report profiles examples where local authorities and health care bodies are already developing such hubs, which it suggests could be a model for other areas in future)

Carried out by Kevin Burgoyne from Brighton and Sussex on 9/1/2021

This report finds that the Covid-19 response has greatly accelerated the use of digital technology, has mainstreamed remote consultations, and similar effects are being seen for remote monitoring. There has been greater flexibility and resilience in the workforce, as well as improved decision-making and access to information through the better use of data and simplified information governance guidance. It concludes that these changes should be embedded and extended to support the health and care system’s recovery from the pandemic and ongoing resilience.
