Boris Johnson’s government promised to revamp health care data in England to give patients easier access to test results, medication lists and care plans — and for records to be shared between systems to speed up treatment.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock said the move would deliver "better patient-focused care” by transforming the way data is used across health and care sectors. It would ensure clinicians have up-to-date medical information so they can make quicker, more informed decisions, he said.
