Open Medical colleagues were well engaged in the project working groups to support mobilisation of the pathway within a tight timeframe, delivered training to clinical, operational and administrative teams, and were on-site to provide support during go-live. The impact has been significant, saving two weeks on the time to the first appointment and improving our performance against the Faster Diagnosis from 49.8% prior to implementation to sustained delivery of the standard since December 2023.
