In the latest episode of the Digital Health Unplugged Networks series, Jordan Sollof is joined by Mark Hutchinson, vice-president of healthcare strategy and transformation at Altera Digital Health, to talk all things electronic patient records (EPRs).
Hutchinson discusses the traditional ‘big bang’ approach to EPR deployment before explaining how Altera offers a different way of implementing the system in a modular approach.
He then gives his take on whether we will fulfil the national EPR mandate before giving his holistic view of the current UK EPR market and whether it will be dominated by the big players or expand to welcome an even bigger pool of suppliers of varying sizes.
Lastly, Hutchinson gives some top tips for an organisation deploying or configuring their EPR system, having experienced multiple EPR implementations in the NHS, and what the future direction of EPRs is overall.
