POLICY: A digital strategy for Scotland 2017 and beyond: a view from the professions

A joint submission from professional leaders in primary care to the Scottish Government’s National Digital Strategy consultation.

In 2016, Scotland’s primary care professional bodies released 'The Future of Primary Care in Scotland: a view from the professions', which set out a shared understanding of the role of primary care and an agreed set of principles to underpin the future of services. In a follow-up to that paper, this joint submission to the National Digital Strategy describes how improved digital infrastructure and information sharing across primary care can help deliver on the government’s vision for digital public services.
