Outpatient Transformation Conference 2021: Embracing Technology and Supporting Recovery
There is an evolving consensus among stakeholders in the NHS that outpatient care is a problem area primed and ready for innovation and service redesign.
The number of outpatient visits in England has doubled to 94 million in the past decade; 20 per cent of potential appointments are cancelled or reported as did not attend, costs have spiralled to £8 billion per year and appointments generate 4,700 million kg of carbon emissions.
Due to the recent covid-19 outbreak, The NHS is giving patients greater control and convenience in their NHS hospital or clinic appointments – by offering telephone or video consultations, empowering people to book their follow-up care, and working with GPs to avoid the need for an onward referral where possible.
As part of the NHS Long Term Plan, up to a third of the face to face appointments delivered in outpatient care will be avoided by embracing technology and arranging services around patients’ lives. This work also plays a significant role in supporting the recovery of hospital services in response to the pandemic.
Our Outpatient Transformation Conference 2021: Embracing Technology and Supporting Recovery will provide secondary care leaders with some direction and insight into the NHS Outpatient Transformation Programme, the event will provide high value take away on the following subjects;

It was great to join the Convenzis team again for the patient flow event. As always, the team were incredibly accommodating and happy to help. The quality of attendees is always of a high standard and relevant to the patient flow and to us also. We continue to have great discussions and footfall around our stand with no need to try and encourage people to come and see us. Really positive event for us and we look forward to working with Convenzis in the future.
My colleague and I presented at the NHS workforce conference 2023, 19 September. The support and guidance we received from the Convenzis team in the run up to our presentation slot was great, well timed and perfectly pitched. The event itself, again was expertly organised. The conference was well Chaired by Sean, who was very engaging. As an audience member as well as a panel member, I would definitely work with the Convenzis team again.
Covenzis delivered an excellent meeting like always - a hubbub of activity focused on future developments within NHS pathology laboratories
Working with Convenzis is a stress-free and a rewarding experience, with fantastic engagement from a highly targeted and relevant audience
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!
