Connecting the Dots: EPRs, Shared Care Records, and Interoperability 

As healthcare organisations accelerate their digital transformation, achieving true interoperability across the NHS remains a key challenge. Despite progress in connecting systems and digitising records, ensuring the right information is available to the right clinician at the right time is still complex due to fragmented data, legacy systems, and varying digital maturity.

In this on-demand Insight Hive webinar, Maria Moors, Account Director at BridgeHead Software, chairs a panel of industry experts, including Amy Smith (FDB UK), Ian Binks (Orion Health), and Chris Gillies (iMDsoft). The discussion explores what interoperability means in practice today, moving beyond theory to real-world application.

The panel examines barriers to effective data sharing, including integration challenges, governance, and workflow misalignment, and considers the impact on clinical decision-making, care coordination, and patient outcomes. They also share practical steps to improve interoperability, such as better data standardisation, stronger collaboration, and more patient-centred system design.

This webinar is part of the Insight Hive series, delivered in collaboration with the Health Innovation Consortium (HIC) and supported by the EPR Network, both of which bring together healthcare professionals and technology leaders to share insights and advance digital health best practice.
