Netcall supports PEP integration with the NHS App

Five NHS customers go live with the integration of Netcall’s Patient Hub with the NHS App.

We are delighted to announce that five of our NHS Trust customers are now live with the national initiative of supporting patients to access their appointment information in Patient Hub through the NHS App:

Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust
Chesterfield Royal Hospital Foundation Trust
Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust
Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust

Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust is excited to be one of the first Trusts to go live with Project Wayfinder, where patients can now access their hospital appointments in Patient Hub via the NHS App. Cornwall continues to be leading the way with their digital-first approach for the benefit of our patients, and this is another step in the right direction.

Supporting the National initiative

Part of the Government’s digital Health and Social care plan launched last year focused on improving and expanding the features of the NHS App to include appointment management. If people are more involved with their own care, it will lead to healthier outcomes and remove some of that heavy burden on the NHS.

Accessing appointment information via the NHS App is an exciting development for us, patients, our NHS customers and wider healthcare stakeholders. Empowering patients who want easier digital access is a great step forward. Patients will have access to appointment information through their smartphones. For those of us who want to manage our health through the device in our pocket, it will make it even easier and more accessible and lead to a sizeable reduction in DNAs.

The result? A better experience for patients and improved clinical utilisation for Trusts.

We are excited to have gone live with Patient Hub on the NHS App, which is a big step forward for us. Leeds is one of the first Trusts to go live with this initiative to support the overall goals of driving up patient engagement and the feedback so far has been extremely positive with more and more patients accessing Patient Hub for their Outpatient appointment details.
