How mHealth can help the NHS: Nick Hunn has a thoughtful (as always) post on mHealth and it's implications for the UK and NHS. Here's an excerpt: "Back at the beginning we looked at the £575 million ($885 million) every year that could be saved from getting patients to turn up for appointments. That’s the equivalent of 27,000 nurses or 8,000 doctors. [Appointment reminders are] a good solid application that is already out there and working, unlike some of the other more fanciful ones. But if you keep on employing those 27,000 nurses or 8,000 doctors you don’t realise the savings. You may have made the system more efficient, but with staff costs accounting for around 70% of the NHS budget, the only real savings will come from reducing staff numbers. mHealth may provide the route to achieve efficiencies that allow this, but by itself mHealth will add cost (because it involves additional new services or hardware). That’s a lesson that politicians and planners need to understand." More
