The NHS's "digital nervous system" is going through a jittery phase.
Its next test will be its acceptance by the public
I attended a speech by Bill Gates in the Sydney Entertainment Centre
several years ago. In it he introduced the "digital nervous system"
as a major M$ strategy.
google lists this as #3, after an M$ reference at #2:

So it looks like either the journalist or the NHS has been microsofted.
I have learned the UK is spending a load of money in a short time. I
hope they get something useful out of it!
