There is currently a strong drive internationally towards creating digitally advanced healthcare systems through coordinated efforts at a national level. The English Global Digital Exemplar (GDE) programme is a large-scale national health information technology change programme aiming to promote digitally-enabled transformation in secondary healthcare provider organisations by supporting relatively digitally mature provider organisations to become international centres of excellence.
The aim of this study was to qualitatively evaluate the impact of the GDE programme in promoting digital transformation in provider organisations that took part in the programme.
The GDE programme has been successful in accelerating digital transformation in participating provider organisations. Large-scale digital transformation programmes in healthcare can stimulate local progress through protected funding, putting in place governance structures and leveraging reputational benefits for participating provider organisations, around a coherent vision of transformation.
Hear from Robin Williams and Kathrin Cresswell from the University of Edinburgh in discussion with Katie MacLure (BCS Health & Care Scotland) for our BCS BMJ HCI Journal Club hosted by Digital Health.
