Hospitals often lag behind in efforts to become paperless but setting up a new hospital, as Schoen Clinic London is doing, makes it possible to choose the technology and develop the systems that enable this from the start.

Set to open in June 2018 in the Harley Street Medical Area, we have invested in an electronic patient record (EPR) system which will digitally store and analyse that information to help manage many everyday tasks, such as patient flow, and support decision-making by providing insights into efficiencies.
