The Doctor in your pocket will see you now! But will ministers really be able to deliver the all-singing, all-dancing NHS app they are promising patients by 2028?

The British will always carry a ‘doctor in his pocket’ under their plans to revolutionize in NHS, which was announced yesterday.

NHS application will use AI and designed to alleviate the pressure on hospitals and GPs will be the ‘digital front door’ of health service.

For the first time, it is claimed that patients can make an appointment through the application, move and cancel and receive personalized medical advice.

According to the government’s 10 -year health plan published yesterday, changes will help to end a GP appointment ’08: 00 Scramble and allow anyone who needs consultation on the same day.

The application, which has been promised by the health secretary WES Streeting, will enter a major revision to use patients ‘medical records and artificial intelligence to answer users’ questions instantly until 2028 and direct them to the best place for care.

This means that patients can do more for those who need the most, without the need to release their appointments and phone lines without having to talk to a real person.

In the meantime, doctors will be able to carry out remote video consultations through the application and save some patients’ need to travel.

Patient groups welcomed the ‘really exciting’ potential of changes last night, but warned that the elderly except the elderly warned.

Mr. Streeting, ‘NHS application will be a doctor in your pocket and will bring our health service to the 21st century.

‘Patients who can pay for private health services can currently get advice, take remote consultations with a doctor and choose where and when their appointments will be.

‘Our reforms will bring these services to every patient regardless of their payment capabilities.

’10 -year health plan will make use of NHS as easy and useful as making your banking or making online shopping. ‘

Dennis Reed, Director of Silver Voices, who made campaigns for the old British, sounds like a 10 -year -old plan, a distant utopia and there is a risk of putting a shelf and gathering dust, with the others that came before him.

Elderly people will be skeptical about whether the plan can be delivered, and they will be concerned that more reliability of the application can exclude the access to timely care. For some, the doctor in his pocket will be locked. ‘

Nuffield Trust Health Think-Bank’s General Manager Thea Stein, the plan ‘patient health service will offer these changes very little details’, he said.

And Mr. Streeting was warned that his plans would fail unless he corrected the social care system, which only received a reference in the 143 -page plan.

According to the government’s 10 -year health plan published yesterday, changes will help to end a GP appointment ’08: 00 scramble and allow anyone who needs the same day consultation.

The Ministry of Health and Social Care, patients, instead of using the existing ‘curved process’ to make a digitally appointment to allow NHS’yi £ 200 million for three years, he said.

They will be able to connect the application to wearable technology, such as exercise viewers and blood pressure monitors, as installed on the data on the medical records.

Artificial intelligence will monitor these data and will potentially warn the changes in order for users to ask for maintenance before they become serious.

Poor patients with some medical conditions will be given free of charge to these instruments. Digital Transformation will be supported by a new single patient record that will bring together a patient’s medical notes for the first time.

This means that they do not have to repeat their medical background to every clinician they see.

Within the scope of the plan, NHS will undermine two -thirds of its outpatient appointments, which currently cost a total of £ 14 billion per year.

They will be replaced by automatic information, digital advice, directly from experts and follow -up by the patient through the NHS application.

Keir Starmer, who announced the 10 -year health plan at an event in East London, said, ‘For a long time, NHS is stuck in the past, rely on letters, long phone queues and even fax machines.’

NHS will also embrace artificial intelligence for staff, automatic religious scholars will take notes for doctors and produce their first care plans drafts. Mr. Streeting said to Mail last night: ‘For the staff, this means more time with people who need to be looked at very face-to-face. For NHS, it is a smarter system that can deliver more and save millions of pounds. ‘

Patients who cannot get answers from the AI ​​boat will be able to leave a question to answer a specialist.

The application will also provide users with access to full medical records and results, and will allow them to book vaccines and make self -references for speech therapy, physiotherapy, podiatry and audiology.

Keir Starmer, who announced the 10 -year health plan at an event in East London, said, ‘For a long time, NHS is stuck in the past, rely on letters, long phone queues and even fax machines.’

Prime Minister added: ’10 years of health plan will bring [the NHS] Digital age by opening more fair and more appropriate access to health services. ‘PM and MR Streeting’, as NHS operates ‘three major shifts’ introduced.

It will aim to move from analog to digital service; In the first place, reduce treatment request by preventing bad health; And shift care from hospitals to community.

Caroline Abrahams from Age UK said: ‘The potential of the NHS application… Really exciting, but we should also ensure that no one is left behind.’

Public libraries will teach lessons in practice. Patients who do not use this will still be able to access care as usual.

Patients Association’s Rachel Power, ‘We welcome the passion of expanding the NHS application… However, we must ensure that innovation does not come at the expense of innovation with approximately one of the obstacles to digital access.’
