Action for M.E. | Consultations: your views | Patients Know Best pilot project
Plans for a pilot study using existing 'Patients Know Best' software that explicitly puts patients in control of their records (and who accesses them) and hopefully will improve the amount of care available too. They plan to test online/skype consultations for the severely-affected, as part of this.
I thought this was particularly helpful in explaining how the system could work to help patients

Some of the things we will be testing to see if this pilot offers improvements with are:
- patient-centred and led care in a way that is experienced and felt by the patient themselves
- increased access to primary and secondary health and social care services
- improved relationships between the patient with professionals but also between professionals
- reduction in duplication and fragmentation of services for the patient
- more timely responses, care and support for the patient.
