Interesting. There are only a few organisations globally that have already taken that route. One is Australian defence.. From experience, It’s going to require proper clinical informatics, open standards, and a strong governance structure to get conforming systems.
Ming Tang, interim chief digital and information officer at NHS England, said that the single patient record (SPR) will connect existing systems, rather than create a new one.

@krassenstein This is the best run through of all the last two minutes before the accident including all the exchanges with the Helicopter and the Tower, all explained by a very highly experienced Pilot Captain. Pretty well nails it.
Moving video.
