Single Patient Record

Fragmented patient information is (in my view) the number one patient safety issue.

Who’s information is it anyway?

Ideally the Patient should be the Lead Data Controller: By default, every individual should be the controller of their own health record.

Proxy Authority: Patients should have the seamless option to grant proxy authority to their GPs or other clinical specialists if they prefer.
