NHS and private health providers' systems not connected

No interoperability between systems – even between systems from the same supplier.

Information is therefore kept in separate silos, with no reliable single view of the truth.

A recurring problem within the NHS; between the NHS and private healthcare; between prison staff and prison healthcare providers; and between health, local authority social care, and care providers.
