The NHS's 75th birthday today is an occasion where I'm not convinced the usual "tea party, big cake, bit 'o bunting" response quite cuts it. We're simultaneously incredibly grateful for the service, and increasingly concerned for i…https://t.co/gpcWv88ECU https://t.co/N5FiawsSzY

The UK’s focus this weekend has been on a remarkable 96-year-old lady. We wondered, how many 95+ females do we have, and what do they get prescribed?

According to NHS Digital, at the end of 2021 there were 87,378 females aged 95+ registered in English GP…https://t.co/ZovBkKf8HC

First rule of marketing: know your customer. Manufacturers sell to the NHS, but the most important "customer" is the patient using the product. Do you have real data on the patient segments your competitors' primary care brands are reaching?

Anyone else out there still relying on big Excel spreadsheets for their mission-critical reporting? Might want to give us a call... #Covid19UK

Health sector analysts everywhere shouting "YES!!!" reading @bengoldacre and co's new paper. NHS hospital medicines data is basically in private monopoly hands, absolutely no #transparency. If you care about #OpenData then share the heck out of this.

The barriers are NOT technical. They are "people".
