The National Information Board has published a report into how digital technology will transform people's health, as well as the health of the NHS. The plans include:
- everyone being able to access their GP records online by 2015
- all other health records to follow by 2018
- a national digital standard for people at end of life
- the Personal Child Health Record (the red book) to be digitalised
- real time data to be available to paramedics, doctors, nurses and midwives
- digitalisation to play a vital role in contributing to the £22 billion efficiency savings target
