Unlocking the Full Potential of Data & AI for NHS Trusts
With the NHS set to embrace the Federated Data Platform (FDP), every NHS Trust is poised for a major digital transformation. Our FDP Assurance & Enablement service ensures a secure, compliant, and seamless transition, unlocking advanced data insights and operational efficiencies while maintaining rigorous standards of security and interoperability.
Key Challenges
Integration
Complexities
- Legacy Systems & Data Silos: NHS Trusts operate multiple EPR systems (Epic, Oracle Health, System C, InterSystems), making seamless data integration difficult.
- Interoperability Gaps: FDP must align with FHIR, HL7, and NHS Spine standards to enable secure, real-time data exchange.
Regulatory & Security Pressures
- Compliance Requirements: Adhering to GDPR, NHS DSPT, and DTAC is critical to ensuring patient data security and governance.
- Cybersecurity Risks: Robust security measures are needed to protect against evolving threats during and after FDP implementation.
Operational Efficiency & Change Management
- Clinician Adoption & Training: Successful digital transformation depends on efficient change management and ensuring clinicians and staff are well trained.
- Scalability & Futureproofing: As NHS Trusts adopt FDP, scalability, continuous compliance, and long-term support are crucial to sustain digital maturity.
