Industry news in brief

The latest Digital Health News Industry round up includes details on a name change, a robotic surgical systems installation and the launch of digital pre-op assessments for one trust. The Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust has selected Agilisys to develop a business intelligence strategy to enhance the trust's data and analytics capabilities. As a result, the trust will have a single business intelligence tool that can be used across the whole of Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (MPFT). Previously this information was used by just the Business Intelligence Team but by making it available trust-wide, regardless of skill-level, it will support massive growth in the trust's data warehouse. In turn, this will support MPFT's ambitions for HIMSS 7. The two organisations are now working together on delivering a roadmap that informs the trust's decisions on migrating its data to the cloud.
