The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has announced that integrated care systems (ICS) will be invited to submit bids for a share of £30m to roll out innovative technology. The funding aims to ease pressures on the NHS by expanding 3D checks that speed up cancer tests and novel logistics solutions such as the use of drones. It will also support the creation of virtual wards and improve the use of wearable medical devices to aid diagnosis and management of various chronic conditions. Applications are expected to open during October 2023 with project delivery during the 2023–2024 financial year.
