Two days of educational lectures by local and national experts, approved for 8 CPD points by Federation of Royal Colleges of Physicians (RCP & RCGP).
The purpose of this summit is to share knowledge and experience of healthcare interoperability to give participants a greater understanding of what it means and how it can be achieved. Our aim is to develop a common understanding and ‘language’ for talking about interoperability to unlock the benefits of information sharing in terms of clinical safety, population health and precision medicine.
Who Attends:
- Software developers or suppliers designing safe and reliable interoperable tools
- CCIOs or CIOs striving for effective information sharing for your organisation
- Frontline health & care staff aspiring to join up care silos






Opinion Pieces and Noteworthy People


Medication Reconciliation Story

We will use a patient story as a thread to bring the interoperability concepts alive:
Michael is a typical patient who accesses many care services, all of which need to be aware of his medication needs.
At the same time Michael also wants to take advantage of technology apps to support him with managing his medication. We believe that improving education on interoperability is an important part of making Michael’s story real in our NHS. Lecturers are encouraged to reference parts of this story where relevant.

Join the INTEROPen community
Interop Summit is held in partnership with the INTEROPen community. INTEROPen is an OPEN collaboration of individuals, industry, standards organisations and health and care providers, who have agreed to work together to accelerate the development of open standards for interoperability in the health and social care sector.
INTEROPen’s current focus is on curating a national set of UK FHIR open standards, called CareConnect profiles and APIs, for the sharing of care data between systems and organisations (FHIR is covered in our Day 1 lecture, “Why you WANT to be on FHIR”). As an individual interested in attending the Interop Summit, we invite you to join the INTEROPen forum on Ryver, where you can carry on conversations started during the Summit and collaborate with peers to act upon ideas inspired by the talks.
If you are part of an organisation, please take this opportunity to ask whether your organisation would like to join the growing list of leading health IT suppliers, providers and now CCGs/LDRs/STP regions who have agreed to our Terms and Conditions and are working together to join up services and make a better health and social care system.
