Digital Health Awards: Deadline extended for nominations

The deadline for nominations for the Digital Health Awards has been extended to 17 May 2018 so there’s still time for you to nominate a digital leader who is making a difference in the world of UK healthcare IT.

You may be aware that nominations are now underway for Digital Health Awards – the only health IT awards voted by your peers. Categories include CCIO, CIO (in association with Socitm), CNIO, IT Team and Future Digital Leader of the year; plus an Outstanding Contribution category (in conjunction with BCS Health and Care).

The nominations are open to everyone in the NHS, and it takes less than 10 minutes to complete the online form. You have until 17 May to submit your entry.

A judging panel (drawn from the advisory panels of the CCIO, Health CIO and CNIO Networks) will review the entries and come up with a shortlist in each category.

The shortlisted candidates will then go through a round of voting by the members of the Networks, and the nominee with maximum votes (from their respective Network members) will be chosen as the winner, followed by two runners up.

The winners will be announced at the annual Digital Health Summer Schools, 19-20 July, University of Birmingham. Champions will be presented with trophies while runners-up will receive a framed certificate.
