NHS Pathology Conference 2022
Back in 2017 NHS England announced that all acute hospital trusts in England would need to change how they work and collaborate to drive out unwarranted variation in pathology services.
Since then, we have seen the development of 29 pathology networks to help drive out unwarranted variation and spearhead the transformation of pathology services across the country. More recently, NHS England and Improvement have widened to use these networks as a key enabler of ambitions outlined in the Long-Term Plan.
To date, over 97% of all trusts are making progress towards networking their pathology services and the programme is on track to deliver the 29 pathology networks across England by the target date of 2021.
The Convenzis Virtual Pathology Transformation Conference aims to provide a timely platform for the NHS pathology community to meet up, share practical insights and listen to sector-leading professionals, with the ultimate aim of empowering pathology providers to keep a foot on the pedal of innovation and integration.
Analysis shows that the 105 hospitals in England which provide pathology services typically do 1.12 billion tests per year at a cost of £2.2 billion. The new pathology networks are expected to save the NHS at least £200 million pounds by 2020-2021.
Join us as we take a closer look at the current state of play across the UK pathology community and open the debate on the key issues facing the sector to date.
As with all Convenzis events, we are very proud to support the NHS and provide this exclusive virtual conference at no cost to the sector.
If you are a pathology expert or leader then you can register for free today.

Speaker TBC
The technology beating at the heart of your business is undoubtedly fuelling your growth and sustaining your competitive advantage. What you don’t need is the complexity that comes with multiple service providers, multiple and varying service levels and a provider who says no. At Exponential-e, we strive to constantly exceed expectations in innovation and service. And we rarely say no.
