Event details
In the context of the complex challenges across the health and care landscape, including significant workforce shortages and limited clinical capacity, this free online event will consider the role of diagnostics in supporting those working in the system and keeping people out of hospital.
The King's Fund event will explore:
- the potential that increased access to diagnostic testing, and in particular in vitro diagnostic testing, in primary care, the community and in community diagnostic hubs offers to diagnosing people earlier and avoiding unnecessary hospital admissions
- what innovations in patient pathways mean for those working across the system and how they are being supported to make changes, in the context of the significant challenges they are facing
- the role integrated care systems can play in developing diagnostic services that encourage innovation and are designed with people and communities at their heart.
