open.substack.com/pub/rorycell... Health data - time to tell an upbeat story. I told the National Patient Data Day conference it was high time the Research community was a bit bolder in explaining the importance of sharing health data

“I naively thought that the NHS, being a national organisation, would have access to data just like a bank or building society.” #useMYdata Member David Snelson on the impact for patients of NHS's labyrinthine systems for collecting and sharing our patient data @financialtimes.com on.ft.com/3ZnPerQ

Patient data could power the NHS. Much of it is still stuck on paper

The UK wants a technological revolution in healthcare but complex information systems will make that hard to deliver
