NHS England 16 October 2019
- A review of the adult screening programme makes a number of recommendations around governance, IT systems, uptake and delivery, performance, financial incentives, creating capacity to change, improving audit and research.
- A key change is that NHS England should take responsibility for the delivery of all screening programmes, integrating the delivery of targeted and population screening previously split between NHS England and PHE.
- Around uptake and coverage the report recommends high priority to implementation of evidence based initiatives to increase uptake – including us of social media, engagement with people with disabilities, wider community engagement and equalities awareness for staff.
- Around information systems the report recommends that NHSX sets out a roadmap for the delivery of new targeted and population screening IT systems as soon as possible, and that IT developments should focus on the functionality needed to support improvements in the uptake and coverage of screening.
