I'm also invested in a small but very promising company called FeedBack Medical .
Its through research into FeedBack that i discovered the UK governments plans to create over 100 community diagnostic sites in high streets, high footfall areas where people can walk in for scans and assessment etc. Also there will likely be major upgrade on equipment used for diagnosis in hospital in UK, also.
The primary reason for this is the growing problem of millions of people on waiting lists for NHS diagnostics and treatment. Its a fact today that most people how get assessed in a hospital, clinic or GP practice will be sent for some kind of scan or diagnostic test.
The aim is for hospital to take care of sick people, while the community diagnostic centres aim to work their way through the five million plus people waiting for diagnostic tests or follow up assessments. the entire NHS will be changed in structure, communication, access etc etc . This is on top of the new hospital promise the government promised a few years ago and is also more , much more urgent, so urgent that budgets have already been set for the first year 202 / 2023.
The numbers are large and an upgrade and increase in diagnostic equipment is a major theme. Kromek should be rewarded surely during the following year, and subsequent years.
"£2.3 billion over the next three years will transform diagnostic services with at least 100 community diagnostic centres across England – helping millions of patients access earlier diagnostic tests closer to home.
£2.1 billion over the next three years to support innovative use of digital technology so hospitals and other care organisations are as connected and efficient as possible, freeing up valuable NHS staff time and ensuring the best care for patients wherever they are.
£1.5 billion over the next three years for new surgical hubs, increased bed capacity and equipment to help elective services recover, including surgeries and other medical procedures."
