NHS England 2 November 2016
- Stemming from the National Innovation Accelerator programme a number of innovations are being considered to join the national NHS payment scheme. These include:
- Web based applications for the self-management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease which will give patients the ability to manage their condition by more effective use of their inhalers, support self care and complement face to face pulmonary rehabilitation programmes.
- Separately from the tariff, there will also be central funding for CCGs to purchase mobile ECG devices, which patients can use to identify and measure atrial fibrillation through mobile ECG technology.
