SUMMARY:ABHI: UK Market Conference
DESCRIPTION:A Sustainable NHS – Will Transformation Balance the Books? \nThis Annual ABHI UK Market Conference 2016 will take stock of progress against the Five Year Forward View\, hearing from both national and local system leaders and will discuss NHS efficiency initiatives and the role of medical technology in delivering a sustainable NHS. \nIn October 2014\, the NHS published its “Five Year Forward View\,” an ambitious plan to tackle a projected £30 billion gap in demand and resources by 2020. Two years on\, NHS finances remain in a perilous state\, with virtually the entire provider sector in deficit and annual contract negotiations the most difficult ever. \nThis conference is a must attend event for all organisations and companies\, from multinationals to SMEs\, working in the UK healthcare system. It is the only event that considers changes in the health and care landscape from the perspective of the Medical Technology sector. It is a Conference made for the industry\, by the industry. \nKey Agenda Topics to be covered \n\nSystem Change\nFive Year Forward View signalled a raft of new models of care\, delivered initially through a programme of “Vanguards.” Subsequently\, localities have been tasked with producing “Sustainability and Transformation Plans” to accelerate the delivery of the Forward View\, in Manchester\, a city region devolution deal has health and care as a critical element and a new body\, NHS Improvement\, will act as both  regulatory and  change agent. Hear from those involved in shaping the landscape nationally and those charged with its delivery on the ground.\nEnhancing Capacity\nTreating patients in the most appropriate and least resource intensive settings is at the heart of initiatives to ensure the future sustainability of the NHS. From the configuration and funding of specialised services to local efforts to tackle delayed discharge\, technology is at the forefront of considerations. What opportunities exist for companies to work with the NHS in this regard?\nInnovation\nThe eagerly awaited Accelerated Access Review\, alongside the established programme of “Test Beds\,” aim to improve the ability of the NHS to pull innovation into practice\, and have been high on the industry’s agenda. At the same time there is innovation in payment systems and the relationships between local organisations across the health and care space. Leaders in all these areas will consider the implications for medical technology companies.\n\nConfirmed Speakers to date \n\nNigel Edwards\, Chief Executive\, The Nuffield Trust\nMike Farrar\, Consultant and former Chief Executive of the NHS Confederation and Senior Manager in the NHS\nDr Jonathan Fielden\, Director of Specialised Commissioning and Deputy National Medical Director\nRoy Lilley\, Former NHS Trust Chairman.
