NHS North Yorkshire and York are planning to purchase an additional 2 000 telehealth systems to support patients living with long-term health conditions in the area, making it the largest scale Telehealth programme in the United Kingdom.
In 2008-2009, more than 6 000 patients in North Yorkshire and York were admitted to hospital with respiratory or cardiac problems. The announcement of the additional 2 000 Telehealth systems follows an eight month trial of the Telehealth technology which has demonstrated the huge benefits it can bring for both patients and clinicians alike.
