106. Pharmacy First - analogue idea in a digital age?

Is the NHS relying on analogue systems in a digital world?

In Episode 106, former Health Minister Steve Brine and guest co-host Charlotte Refsum (Director of Health Policy at the Tony Blair Institute) discuss the massive gap between NHS prevention ambitions and real-world execution.

From the shockingly low uptake of bowel cancer screening kits in the youngest eligible groups to the government’s brand new £10 billion digital transformation plan, they discuss whether technology can finally solve the NHS productivity crisis. Plus, they break down wearable tech for sepsis monitoring, and the future of community pharmacies.
