Council meets with health board clinicians to provide direction for national products and services
The first meeting of the new Welsh Clinical Informatics Council (WCIC) has taken place.
The Council is a forum set up by medical director Rhidian Hurle to engage directly with clinicians from the health boards and representatives from nursing and therapies. It will replace some of the existing clinical reference groups.
The WCIC will provide an assurance and design function on 'Once for Wales' national products and services.
Each health board will have two clinical representatives on the Council, who will be expected to lead local clinical informatics groups within their own health boards, creating a clinical informatics network across Wales.
