Technology is radically altering the way health and social care is delivered and consumed across the globe. Pressure to reduce costs, address staffing shortages, increase productivity and demonstrate value continue to intensify.
Meanwhile demographic drivers – an ageing population, chronic illness and a younger, tech-savvy generation who are moving away from traditional concepts of disease, illness and treatment to active, ongoing monitoring and maintenance of health and well-being – demand innovation and fresh insight.
While the NHS and independent health and social care providers will continue to play a major role in securing the health of the nation, digital innovators and entrepreneurs are disrupting traditional models of reactive service delivery.
Whether you are a digital health start-up or SME, an established tech company seeking to expand your business and markets, or an NHS or independent provider developing or purchasing digital solutions, Bevan Brittan’s Digital Health Team can advise you and help you to thrive.
Because we operate in your world, we know what it takes for you to thrive in it
Our Digital Health legal and regulatory team are experts in supporting clients in the delivery of new technology within health and social care. We understand the need to work in partnerships and across health and social care systems and are able to provide a one-stop, integrated Digital Health advice service drawing upon expertise across the firm’s Corporate, Commercial, Employment, Regulatory and Clinical Risk teams.
