Technology & Digital Health

We use a number of different technologies in the practice, all ultimately aimed at providing a better service to our patients. The various programmes or services do this in a range of ways, such as enabling timely communications with our patients, speeding up the clinician’s workflow, helping to pick up early signs of cancer, or taking and summarising consultation notes automatically to free up more time for the clinician to spend with their patients.

EMIS Web

EMIS Web is our Electronic Health Record. Used by most Dudley GP practices, and over 60% of GP practices nationwide this is where all of your health information is saved. Increasingly more and more additional third-party programmes integrate with and link in to EMIS, expanding the number of options and tools for clinicians.

C the Signs

C the Signs is a cancer prediction system that can identify patients at risk of cancer at the earliest and most curable stage of the disease. C the Signs can rapidly identify which cancers a patient is at risk of and recommend the most appropriate test or specialist to diagnose their cancer.

This has recently been deployed across all of our Network practices to not only help with the early detection of cancer, but also streamline the referral process and make sure that all referred patients are seen and followed up as needed.
