We are excited to announce that Definition Health has been named in the ORCHA Elective Care Digital Health Toolkit Guide. This recognition reflects our commitment to providing innovative digital solutions that tackle some of the NHS’s most pressing challenges, particularly the growing elective surgery backlog.

The elective backlog is one of the most significant issues the NHS faces today. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of patients have experienced delays in receiving vital surgeries and treatments. As a result, the NHS has made addressing this backlog a top priority for 2022/23, with a particular focus on adopting technologies that streamline healthcare delivery.

NHS leaders are now seeking proven digital health technologies that can alleviate the pressure on clinicians, enhance patient care, and make the surgical journey more efficient. The ORCHA Digital Health Toolkit plays a pivotal role in this process, offering a curated selection of digital tools that have been assessed for their safety, effectiveness, and usability. These solutions are designed to help the NHS make informed decisions about which technologies will best support their elective recovery efforts.

ORCHA ToolkitThe ORCHA Elective Care Digital Health Toolkit is an essential guide for NHS organisations seeking digital health solutions that will make the biggest impact on reducing elective waiting lists. Each technology in the toolkit is rigorously reviewed to ensure it meets high standards of clinical safety and patient usability. This allows healthcare providers to adopt new technologies with confidence, knowing they are choosing solutions that can effectively reduce backlogs and improve care delivery.

We’re honoured to be included in this toolkit for our end-to-end digital surgical patient tool, which has the potential to save the NHS £27 million. Our platform is designed to optimise every stage of the surgical process, from preoperative assessments to postoperative recovery.

While 93% of healthcare professionals believe digital health can improve patient outcomes, it’s crucial to choose technologies that deliver measurable impact. The inclusion of Definition Health’s platform in the ORCHA toolkit demonstrates its potential to make a significant difference in tackling the elective backlog while providing trusted, effective solutions for NHS staff and patients alike.

As the NHS continues its journey to reduce the elective backlog, digital solutions like those offered by Definition Health will be critical in creating long-term improvements in care delivery. Our platform is not only supporting the NHS through its immediate recovery but also laying the groundwork for a more efficient, patient-centric healthcare system. We are proud to be recognised by ORCHA and look forward to expanding our impact across more NHS trusts.
