The NIHR ARCs together with the HealthInnovation Network have published the findings of 14 projects, which identified and tested promising innovations to support new ways of working in the NHS post-pandemic. The NHS Insights Prioritisation Programme (NIPP) was launched in 2021 to contribute to the recovery from COVID-19, build resilience and deliver benefits to patients. Health Innovation Networks and the National Institute for Health and Care Research Applied Research Collaborations (#NIHRARCs) partnered on the projects, benefitting from each other’s unique skills and links with system partners. Each received a share of £4.2m funding from NHS England and the Accelerated Access Collaborative. The partnerships tested and evaluated innovative approaches within their local Integrated Care Systems. Each project focused on one of four priority areas: remote consultations, remote monitoring, service delivery, and workforce. The full report and evaluation, along with more information on the 14 NIPP innovations including podcasts and blogs are available here: https://lnkd.in/eHxZbTmR #healthcare #innovation

Stakeholder exchange and peer learning can be key success factors in health policy implementation. Last Friday we gathered to discuss challenges in the European level and presented many initiatives focusing on health workforce upskilling and upscaling. Let's keep on developing the supporting working environment in healthcare.

Historic moment regarding health data for all citizens and patients in Europe! stay tuned for next actions, perhaps in small steps but a very big footprint for closing the huge health data gap! Easy and fast being the key words here. The EIT Health Scandinavia report on the EHDS implementation https://lnkd.in/dXRjzigj #EHDS #healthdata #patientempowerment

🌐 With the #EHDS Europe takes one step closer to improving patient care by making it easier and faster for patients to access and control their health data and for data to be used to drive healthcare innovation. 🏛️ The European Parliament and the Council of the European Union have now reached a provisional agreement on the European Health Data Space (EHDS), a new regulation making it easier to exchange and access health data at the EU level. The agreement will now need to be endorsed by both the Council and the Parliament. 🔑 Once the law is in effect, key actors including policymakers, health data access bodies, healthcare service providers, health institutions, higher education providers, patient organisations and the digital medical devices industry will have a vital role to play in implementing the regulation-making its bold vision a reality. 📖 Interested in how this can be implemented in the Benelux?  In December we published a report based on a Roundtable discussion with stakeholders, policymakers, and healthcare professionals from Belgium, Luxembourg, and The Netherlands. The expert panel discussed the readiness, challenges, and opportunities for implementing the EHDS in their respective national healthcare systems outlining recommendations for both national and EU policymakers to move forward with the EHDS in the Benelux:  https://bit.ly/3TnyFZj 👉 A pan-European report, which draws insights from our Roundtable Series across Europe, will be launched at the EIT Health Summit in Rotterdam on April 18.

Strengthening Local Innovation-Implementation Ecosystems: Learnings from Four Healthcare Innovation Hubs! I. Inovation Hubs In 2021, the Health Foundation launched the Adopting Innovation Programme to help NHS staff become better adopters of innovation. The programme funded four ‘innovation hubs’ across NHS provider organisations in England II. Key Insights 1. Integration into Local Systems Hubs established themselves within local healthcare settings, each with complex innovation-implementation ecosystems. Through development and adaptation to challenges, the hubs identified their added value and built a case for sustainability by integrating into the local system 2. Core Functions Each hub started from a different place but converged towards integrating more closely with local systems, offering three core functions: central coordination, information dissemination, and catalysing partnerships 3. Common Activities All hubs selected from a similar suite of activities, including developing tools for innovators, bespoke innovator support, educational offerings (e.g., staff training, webinars), relationship building, patient and public engagement, and signposting to resources. These activities were chosen for their practicality and acceptability, building on previous experiences 4. Focus on Development While one of the original goals was to promote accelerated adoption of innovation, this was not specifically achieved during the evaluation period. The hubs spent more time developing themselves, identifying their offer and added value, and planning for sustainability III. Lessons Learnt 1. Navigating Complex Ecosystems Complex innovation-implementation ecosystems can be navigated by stakeholders willing to engage in strengthening the system using creative and flexible approaches 2. Core Functions for Success For innovation-implementation ecosystems to operate successfully, there must be a means to coordinate, inform, and convene the work of individuals, groups, and organisations, as represented by the three core functions of the hubs 4. Integrated Care Systems While the ICS is a natural place for the functions of hubs to sit, it is unclear whether and how the ICS, as currently constituted, will have sufficient capacity to support this 5. Limited Evidence Evidence about how local innovation-implementation ecosystems function and how to strengthen them is limited 6. Long-Term Evaluation To measure, see, and understand the impact of hubs, they need to be funded and evaluated over substantially longer periods to allow for set-up and impacts to be observed Check out this insightful report by Robert Romanelli, PhD, MPH, Jessica Dawney, Avery Adams, Saoirse Moriarty, Hoi Shan Wong & Tom Ling at RAND Europe here: https://lnkd.in/d3kxfBHZ #healthcare #innovation #ecosystems #systems RAND The Health Foundation NHS
