@GaryMcAllister For me number 3 is the big prize - but only if it does integration with structured data in the EHR well

[Refik Gökmen @refikg]

@liambarker @jamie_wallis I’d love it if we got to state where these massive proformas weren’t needed at all - all the info is there in the London Care Record. @jamie_wallis let me know if this is something I can pick up in the GSTT-Primary Care liaison group

🧵Today we published our analysis, commissioned by @jrf_uk, which reveals that people living in poverty find it harder to live healthy lives, harder to access #NHS services, live with greater illness and die earlier than the rest of the population. https://t.co/4ADZEvAeUk

@jamie_wallis I totally agree it’s far from ideal! It’ll be difficult to fix Docman issues & some of the basic formatting quickly, but we’ve definitely got to get the unnecessary stuff out of letters. Working on it - please feel free to drop me a line

@deepaRD @GSTTnhs @KingsCollegeNHS @Synnovis Thanks Deepa!

[Refik Gökmen @refikg]

Day 11 of our #Epic go-live across @GSTTnhs, @KingsCollegeNHS and @Synnovis. I’m so proud to be part of a team that has achieved so much already - and still lots to do!

[Sir Michael Marmot @MichaelMarmot]

A common question: what can we, in health care, do about the social determinants of health. The answer in this report: a great deal. Health care organisations can be active partners to act on social determinants to prevent illness and reduce inequalities.

[Refik Gökmen @refikg]

@RebDCruz I’m glad they helped!

[Refik Gökmen @refikg]

And we’re off! The largest single Epic go-live ever :)

[Guy's and St Thomas' @GSTTnhs]
