YORKSHIRE companies have the chance to create jobs and save lives by leading a world revolution in healthcare, analysts predicted yesterday.
Prime Minister David Cameron has announced plans to use ‘telehealth’ systems to monitor three million patients with chronic illnesses in their home.
As a result, the NHS will save millions of pounds every year, because it means fewer people will have to be admitted to hospital.
The hi-tech systems will allow health checks to be carried out and sent electronically to GPs without the need for patients to make an appointment or visit a clinic.
We must remember the work of the ‘good’ paid carers

Better patient–results and more choice is central to Government’s healthcare plan
New NHS outcomes strategy
The Government has announced its new plan to drive–up results and give patients more control over their healthcare, through the NHS Outcomes Framework 2012/13.
The strategy gives a new map of local health services which people will access through the ‘any qualified provider’ policy which starts from April 2012; and a new map of GP practices on the NHS Choices website.
