The PHIN Quality Forum returns this October, bringing together healthcare professionals from across the independent sector to explore how data can better support patient choice.
This year’s theme ('Smart patients – How data will inform healthcare choices') focuses on how information is shaping the way people understand, compare and navigate healthcare.
As access to data grows, patients are becoming more informed and more involved in decisions about their care. The forum will look at what that means in practice, where there are still gaps, and how the sector can make better use of the information available.
