Clinician engagement is essential for the diffusion of digital innovation

What is it about?

Global health-care systems continue to face growing pressure to cope with an ageing population and increased expectation to deliver advanced medical interventions. Health-care technology has seen substantial growth but adoption of these technologies within the NHS has been tentative. Greater acceptance of digital technology with clinician engagement are crucial to cope with the ever-increasing requirements to run high-quality health-care services.
