The NHS generates a huge amount of data. Connecting this data and intelligence across the system provides the power to drive transformative change, deliver enormous benefits for the patient and achieve true integration of care. Yet many challenges remain in ensure a steady flow of information across the system: concerns over consent and the need to ensure interoperability between systems chief among them.

The award is about recognising NHS initiatives that harness the power of data to bring positive change in the delivery and planning of care, and where data sharing has made a real difference. Judges are looking for data and insight-driven implementation of strategies, systems and processes which have enabled direct improvements to patient care.
