echnologies such as telehealth, telecare, telemedicine, telecoaching and self-care apps have the potential to transform the way people engage in and control their own healthcare, empowering them to manage it in a way that is right for them. Recent research findings found 70% of NHS money goes into caring for people over the age of 65 and 60% of those suffer from chronic illness. With 10 million people 65 and over, a figure rapidly increasing, there is the potential to save a lot of money in this particular area. Technology Enabled Care Services has been identified as a key enabler to help reduce this figure and improve the wellbeing of patients.

From a national perspective, the NHS England Technology Enabled Care Services (TECS) Resource for Commissioners, has been developed by NHS commissioners to help maximise the value of technology-enabled care services for patients, carers, commissioners and the whole health economy. We are excited to share details of our first national NHS Telemedicine Conference which will provide an interactive, virtual, platform for NHS managers and leaders to meet up and share practical insight, based on the implementation of Technology Enabled Care Services across the NHS.

Key focus points for The NHS Telemedicine Conference:

• The TECS programme, what is it?
• Digital Care Hubs: Best practice
• Meet the experts: Supplier showcase
• Continuous Monitoring Services: Supporting social care
