Pathpoint SurgiCare- Net Zero Initiative: cloud based workflow solution helping clinicians to prepare patients for surgery, facilitate sustainable decision making, and support recovery at home.

Our offering aims to provide a digital solution for the full perioperative care processes, from remotely delivered pre-admission clinics, sustainability-promoting clinical decision support, to patient-initiated follow-up and symptom monitoring.

Carbon impact of moving care closer to home will be measured to ensure that reductions in travel and length of inpatient stay achieved are not outweighed by increases elsewhere. This new service model for 21st century care aims to empower clinicians and patients to choose more sustainable surgical pathways.

Harnessing the power of digital cloud technology, PathpointTM eDerma provides a unified, web-based solution to deliver and end-to-end two-week wait pathway starting at a patient’s first presentation to a GP, to the detailed dermatologist assessment, and the minor operation (biopsy/excision) that may be necessitated. The digital solution resolves the lag time between a referral and the definitive diagnostic intervention: dermoscopy and biopsy with up to 97.7% of patients being diagnosed or scheduled for a definitive diagnostic intervention within 48 hours of referral. Patients are kept fully informed throughout the chain of events, consent is sought within the software and therapy advice communicated via digital leaflets and videos whilst integration with local and national systems maintains seamless data flow.

Ufonia's mission is to increase the sustainability of healthcare by automating high volume, low complexity care. The company has developed Dora, an autonomous telemedicine assistant that can telephone patients as a like-for-like replacement for routine clinical appointments.

Dora uses next generation artificial intelligence, but patients don't require any technology - they simply receive a phone call. Clinical trials have shown patients are highly likely to recommend it to others. By reducing the demands on clinical staff patients can be cared for sooner. The solution provides triple-bottom line sustainability benefits by reducing the environmental and financial costs of healthcare travel and infrastructure, whilst improving accessibility, particularly to digitally disenfranchised citizens.
