OK, let's take look at @RoyalMail #Health (no @Twitter handle as yet):

royalmail.com/health

It's apparently "a new #business division working across the #healthcare industry, including local #pharmacies"... Image
...though its main partners at this point appear to be @Pharmacy2U - of which more later - and "exciting new service" #Charac, an app & #SaaS platform which advertises on @facebook, @instagram and @LinkedIn but again doesn't (yet) have a @Twitter handle:

charac.co.uk Image
...that's 👆 #Charac's front page, BTW; the pitch it makes to #pharmacies themselves 👇 is somewhat different:

charac.co.uk/pharmacies/

I dunno about you, but "Creating new ways to make more money that isn’t dependent on NHS finance" sounds a lot like #marketing to patients... Image

What was that you were saying about #RobotProcessAutomation, @NHSX?

Maybe rather than pootling about with (Faculty) AI, data stores & Palantir you and @NHSEngland could focus on getting basics like #appointments & #prescriptions 👇 right first?

In order for there to be #data...
...people do actually have to be able to USE the service, y'know!

We already know 'phone triage' and #ChooseAndBook *can* work, and does, in some places. It may not be sexy or headline-grabbing, but getting them to work for EVERYONE would be real tech progress, don'tcha think?
You never know, you might learn something useful about delivering, scaling up and seeing through multi-system #interoperability...

WARNING: I'm furious, and what follows is likely to reflect that.
I unfortunately use @elicahealth via @DHCS_CA . Their previous psychiatry provider prescribed me a schedule II medication. However, like literally every single provider I've had through @elicahealth, that provider later left the clinic. I was provided no notice of this. Nor was I
