Vision
Case Study Carl Woodroffe – Vision (Confirmed) Population Health Business Development Manager “Population Level Healthcare Management” “NHS organisations are starting to understand the value of the data sitting dormant in every GP practice. Population Level Health tools can screen for risks to patients and identify when improvements can be made. So why aren’t all NHS organisations doing it? What is stopping them from using the terabytes of data they hold to improve people’s lives, reduce harm and deliver better outcomes? Could it be concerns about data security, system complexity or something else? Carl Woodroffe discusses the challenges presented by the NHS’s commitment to scale-up population health management from his own personal experience.”

I worked with Convenzis, primarily Dan, for the first time this year, putting together a bespoke online event for IBM. He has always been so responsive and accommodating. The team always remained professional and helpful – despite the many demands from our side! They were very keen for us to maximise on the investment and revisit those attendees who had not committed to follow ups.
It was an absolute pleasure doing business with Convenzis and I know there will be more opportunities next year. Looking forward to it!
