Strategic Partnerships
Collaborating to solve key challenges
- The UK healthcare system is facing a wide range of systemic challenges, which are impacting staff and patients [1]
- Healthcare leaders recognise that they need to transform how care is delivered to overcome multiple challenges
- These include workforce shortages, productivity, making capital budgets go as far as possible, reaching net zero targets, and pressures from a growing and ageing population
- At Philips, we work collaboratively with customers to deliver future-proof solutions that solve key challenges, improve outcomes and contribute to the long-term success of your organisation

Delivering measurable improvements in care, efficiency, and innovation
- Enabling access to integrated digital health technologies, improving interoperability, driving access to data and analytics, AI, cybersecurity and virtual care

- Supporting you to improve staff satisfaction through training and education, enabling access to innovative technologies, improved workflow, and unlocking new models of care
- Partnering to reduce environmental footprint and enable access to sustainable solutions
True partnerships will power digital transformation across UK healthcare
- UK staff face the highest levels of burnout, with pressures taking their toll on overburdened staff [1]
- The UK also falls behind other countries in its capital investment, with substantially fewer CT and MRI scanners [2] – hospitals need more innovative ways to access the technology they need
- Patients and clinicians expect faster, more personalised care - unlocking data and analytics is essential
- The 10-year NHS plan for England includes significant digitalisation to transform the NHS from analogue to digital [3], but true partnerships are needed to make this a reality
